Supply Identification
The type of power supply can be identified by the model num- ber shown on the back of the chassis and panel label..
Power Requirements
The Century Series power supplies have certain electrical requirements to operate properly. If possible the power supply should be connected to a dedicated circuit. Should any other appliance on the same circuit draw enough current to overload the circuit, the breaker or fuse will trip causing loss of power to the console. Note the maximum current draw specifications at right. Be sure that the circuit to which you connect the sup- ply can handle the draw.
The power switch on the supply front panel is also a circuit breaker, there is no power fuse. Should the supply ever shut down, or trip at start up, simply push the switch to the off posi- tion and then on again.
Ground Linking
Safety Considerations 
Each new power supply is shipped with the AC third wire ground connected to the console chassis ground. The connec- tion is made at the rear of the power supply unit. This is neces- sary for safety reasons so that exposed metal parts are ground- ed. In the event of a live conductor making contact with the console chassis or the power supply chassis then the current will flow to ground without a safety hazard arising. Note that when the console is disconnected from the power supply the chassis ground connection to AC third wire ground is broken and safety protection is lost. For uninterruptible grounding, in a fixed installation for example, make a connection directly to the console chassis from the safety ground. Disconnect the ground link on the rear of the power supply. This disconnects console ground from power supply AC third wire ground which would otherwise create a

Console and Power Supply Grounding
Console chassis ground is electrically connected to audio ground, pin 1 of XLR connectors and 1/4" sockets and to the terminal 'CONSOLE GROUND' at the rear of the power sup- ply. The AC third wire connection in the power supply cable connects the metal chassis of the power supply to safety ground. This connection should never be disturbed. Hazardous voltages exist inside the power supply which require the case to be grounded. When
