AC Power Cable

A power cable must be created to supply power to the unit. The following
materials are needed:
A three-position power connector (supplied)
• • • •
A braid/foil shielded power cable, terminated at power source end, with three
• • • •
#18 (1.0 mm), #16 (1.3 mm), or #14 (1.6 mm) AWG solid or stranded copper
wires, rated 80ºC or better
Perform the following steps to construct and attach the cable:
1. Cut wire cable to the desired length.
2. Strip 0.25-inch (6 mm) of insulation from the end of the conductor wire. No bare
wire should be exposed when the cable is connected to the workstation.
3. Tin the wire ends with solder if using stranded wire. This will keep the wire
from fraying.
When inserting the wire ends of the power cable into the block plug, be sure
there is no exposed wire. Trim the wire ends of the cable or cut a new cable if
necessary.
4. Insert the three wire ends of the power cable into the hole of the connector plug.
Bend the Protective Earth ground (PE) wire, the neutral (N) wire, and the line
(L) wire around the corresponding screw. Be sure that no bare wires are exposed.
5. Tighten the three screws above the wires to hold them firmly in place.
