Installing the Chassis Ground Connection

To connect the chassis to a reliable earth ground, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Strip one end of the ground wire to the length required for the ground lug or terminal.

•For the NEBS ground lug—approximately 0.75 in. (20 mm)

•For user-provided ring terminal—as required

Step 2 Crimp the ground wire to the ground lug or ring terminal, using a crimp tool of the appropriate size.

Step 3 Attach the ground lug or ring terminal to the chassis as shown in Figure 3-18, Figure 3-19, Figure 3-20, or Figure 3-21. For the ground lug, use the two screws with captive locking washers provided. For a ring terminal, use one of the screws provided. Use a number 2 Phillips screwdriver, and tighten the screws to a torque of 8 to 10 in-lb (0.9 to 1.1 N-m).

Step 4 Connect the other end of the ground wire to a suitable grounding point at your site.
