SECTION 4
4.5.2.3 Changing detachable AC Power Cord
a) Change the supplied detachable AC power cord with detachable power cord that
has "IEC 60320 – C13" female connector for the power supply end and a plug on
the other end with 3 pin configuration to suit the 230V country specific outlet.
4.6 DC OUTPUT CONNECTIONS
4.6.1 DC Output Terminals
DC output is provided as follows:
•
Red Positive Terminal (4, Figs 2.1 and 2.2):
o Tubular Hole – Diameter 5 mm / 0.2"
o *Set Screw: 5/64" Hex Socket Head Screw; #10, 24 TPI, 5/16" long
•
Black Negative Terminal (3, Figs 2.1 and 2.2):
o Tubular Hole – Diameter 5 mm / 0.2"
o *Set Screw: 5/64" Hex Socket Head screw; #10, 24 TPI, 5/16" long*
*NOTE: The following have been provided for convenience:
a) 5/64" Hex / Allen Key for the Hex Socket Head Screw.
RETAIN THE HEX / ALLEN KEY FOR FUTURE USE
b) 2 spare Hex socket head screws
4.6.2 Pin Type of Terminal Lugs for Wiring to be Connected to DC Output Terminals
The DC output terminals have a tubular hole with a set screw (See Section 4.6.1 above
for specifications). As the DC terminals have been provided with a set screw, do not
connect bare stranded wire end directly to the DC output terminal as the strands will
spread out when the set screw is tightened and all the strands may not be pinched
firmly under the set screw. This will result in (i) reduction in effective area of cross
section for current conduction leading to increased voltage drop and overheating
along output wiring and (ii) Sparking / loose connection under the set screw leading
to overheating / melting of the plastic material of the terminals. The ends of stranded
wiring to be connected to the DC output terminals should be crimped to Pin Type of
Terminal Lugs that have been provided with the unit (see Fig 4.1). After crimping the
Terminal Lugs, use insulating heat shrink tubing or tape to insulate the bare cylindrical
portion of the lugs.
Fig 4.1 Pin type of terminal lugs provided for termination of
stranded wiring to be connected to the DC input terminals.
