Input Cable: LN-10 Control to Power
Source
K1501-10 (Control Cable only)
Consists of a 9-conductor control cable with 14-pin
control cable plug, without electrode cable, and is
available in a length of 10 ft. (3 m).
With input power disconnected from the power
source, install the input cable per the following:
1) Connect the end of the control cable with the 14-
pin cable plug to the mating receptacle on the
power source.
2) Connect the electrode lead to the power source
output terminal of the desired polarity.
3) Connect the 9-socket plug of the control cable to
the mating receptacle on the bottom of the LN-10
control box.
4) Slip the current sensor cover off enough to expose
the input connector stud. Connect the electrode
cable from the power source to this stud with the
nut provided, then reclose the current sensor
cover.

Work Cable

Connect a work lead of sufficient size and length (per
the following table) between the proper output termi-
nal on the power source and the work. Be sure the
connection to the work makes tight metal-to-metal
electrical contact.
