Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or
wiring your Moxa EtherDevice Switch.
Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and
common wire. Observe all electrical codes dictating the maximum
current allowable for each wire size.
If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could
overheat, causing serious damage to your equipment.
You should also pay attention to the following points:
Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If
power wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure
the wires are perpendicular at the intersection point.
NOTE: Do not run signal or communications wiring and power
wiring in the same wire conduit. To avoid interference, wires
with different signal characteristics should be routed
separately.
You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to
determine which wires should be kept separate. The rule of
thumb is that wiring that shares similar electrical characteristics
can be bundled together.
Keep input wiring and output wiring separate.
Where necessary, it is strongly advised that you label wiring to
all devices in the system.
