Grounding the Device

Connect the chassis ground terminal to protective Earth if neither of the power supplies are already connected.
If the ground terminal on the power supply module(s) is not connected to safety Earth, a connection must be
provided from the chassis ground terminal.
IMPORTANT!
If the ground terminal on the power supply module(s) is connected to safety Earth, a connection from
the chassis ground terminal is not required.
The RUGGEDCOM RX5000 chassis ground terminal uses a #8-32 screw. It is recommended to terminate the
ground connection with a #8 ring lug and torque it to 3.4 N·m (30 lbf·in).
