Power Cords

Since the power cord is the power supply's main disconnect device, it should be plugged into an easily
accessible outlet. In the event that your power cord is lost or damaged, refer to the specifications below.

Grounding the Chassis

The switch has two threaded holes for grounding screws located on the back of the chassis. These holes
use 10-32 screws and are approximately one inch apart. These holes are surrounded by a small paint-free
rectangular area, which provides metal-to-metal contact for a ground connection.
Use this connector to supplement the ground provided by the AC power cord. To do so, install a Panduit
Grounding Lug (type LCD8-10A-L) using 8AWG copper conductors to the paint-free rectangular area. Be
sure to use a crimping tool.
