  • Page 26: Primary Input Power Connections

    82 3.03 Primary Input Power Connections CAUTION Check your power source for correct voltage before plugging in or connecting the unit. Check the Voltage Selector at the rear of the unit for correct setting before plugging in or connecting the unit. The primary power source, fuse, and any extension cords used must conform to local electrical code and the recommended circuit protection and wiring requirements as specified in Section 2.
  • Page 27 82 4. If the power cable being used is not the factory - supplied cable, use a three - conductor input power cable for the voltage desired and strip back the insulation on the individual wires. 5. Pass the cable being used through the access opening in the back panel of the power supply. Re- fer to Section 2 for power cable specifications.
