Connecting High AC/DC Power
To connect a high AC/DC power supply to the device, do the following:
Electrocution hazard – risk of death, serious personal injury and/or damage to
the device.
Make sure the supplied cover is always installed over high voltage screw-type
terminal blocks.
Electrical hazard – risk of damage to equipment.
Do not connect high voltage (>72 V) AC/DC power cables to low voltage (12/24/48
V) power supply terminals. Damage to the low voltage power supply will occur.

plates, allowing either bare wire connections or crimped terminal lugs.
Use M3.5 ring lugs that have short insulated ring terminals with a maximum distance
of 5 mm (0.2 in) from the ring center to the insulation.
