Connecting the AC Power Cable

Best Practice for Outdoor Connection to AC Mains
In all circumstances and with any outdoor infrastructure the recommended practice is to connect to AC mains in
an outdoor grade weather protected junction box. This needs to be implemented by a qualified resource in a
manner that is consistent with the electrical code in force in the jurisdiction of deployment. In many countries
this will require a licensed electrician to perform this operation. In Japan, this would be performed by a Certified
Electrician by Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.
The use of plugs with infrastructure equipment is suitable only for temporary installs where nuisance tripping of
GFI plugs is considered tolerable. if a plug is desired for attachment to the cable assemblies then the installer is
expected to follow all directions provided with the plug end in a fashion consistent with local electrical code.
