Connecting Earth Ground to Equipment
Warning - The equipment has a separate protective earthing terminal on the chassis
that must be permanently
connected to earth ground to adequately ground the chassis and protect the operator
from electrical hazards.
Caution - Before equipment installation begins, ensure that a service personnel has
attached an appropriate grounding
lug to the grounding cable supplied.
To connect earth ground to equipment:
1. Connect one end of the grounding cable to a proper earth ground.
2. Place the ground lug attached to the ground cable over the protective earthing terminal.
3. Secure the grounding lug to the protective earthing terminal with washers and screws
4. Dress the grounding cable and ensure that it does not touch or block access to other
components.
Warning - Before powering on the equipment, connect the frame of the equipment to
earth. For the earthing wire, green and yellow insulation is required and the cross-
sectional area of the conductor must be more than 0.75mm
Warning - The protective earthing terminal with washers and screws where a screw is
threaded into it should not be less than twice the pitch of the screw thread, at least
3.5mm diameter; star washers or spring washers can be used.
Warning - After power is off and disconnected from the equipment, then disconnect
the frame of the equipment to earth.
