Grounding The Switch With A Grounding Strip; Grounding An Ac-Powered Switch Through The Pe Wire - HP 5830 series Installation Manual

The power input end of the switch has a noise filter, whose central ground is directly connected to the
chassis to form the chassis ground (commonly known as PGND). You must securely connect this
chassis ground to the earth so the faradism and leakage electricity can be safely released to the earth
to minimize EMI susceptibility of the switch.
You can ground the switch using one of the following methods, depending on the grounding
conditions available at the installation site:
