4 Wiring Tank Side Monitor NRF 590 Power supply The Tank Side Monitor can be AC or DC supplied, depending on the installed power supply board. The AC supply needs to be connected to the terminals marked L/+ (Line) and N/- (Neutral), corresponding with the phase/line and neutral wire. DC supply can be connected to the same terminals, for which it is suggested to connect the positive (+) to the terminal marked (L/+), and the negative to the terminal marked (N/-).
