PROPER GROUNDING AND INSTALLATION TIPS

CAUTION – Proper Grounding
Monster PowerCenters require a properly grounded 3-wire outlet to protect connected equipment. If your
AC outlet is improperly wired (no ground or reverse polarity), the Green "Ground OK" light on the front panel
of the Professional PowerCenter PRO 3500 will not light up. In this event, call an electrician
to fix the problem in your home's wiring.
Many older buildings are inadequately wired. It's very common for a building to be improperly grounded. Building
wiring and grounding must conform to applicable NEC (USA) or CEC (Canada) codes. If you're not sure about your
the wiring you are using, have it checked by a qualified electrician.
Proper Power and Protection
IMPORTANT NOTE –
To completely deliver clean power and protect your equipment against electrical surges, every wire
into or out of your equipment must be connected to an appropriate Monster PowerCenter.
