Power Cords

Because the power cord is the power supply’s main disconnect device, it should be plugged into an easily accessible outlet. In the event that your power cord is lost or damaged, refer to the specifications below.

Specifications

The power cord to be used with 115-Volt configuration is a minimum type SJT (SVT) 18/3, rated at 250 Volts AC, 10 Amps with a maximum length of 15 feet. One end terminates in an IEC 320 attachment plug and the other end terminates in a NEMA 5-15P plug.

The power cord to be used with 230-Volt configuration is minimum type SJT (SVT) 18/3, rated 250 Volts AC, 10 Amps with a maximum length of 15 feet. One end terminates in an IEC 320 attachment plug and the other end terminates as required by the country where it will be installed.

Grounding the Chassis

The switch has two threaded holes for grounding screws located on the back of the chassis. These holes use 10-32 screws and are approximately one inch apart. These holes are surrounded by a small paint-free rectangular area, which provides metal-to-metal contact for a ground connection.

Use this connector to supplement the ground provided by the AC power cord. To do so, install a Panduit Grounding Lug (type LCD8-10A-L) using 8AWG copper conductors to the paint-free rectangular area. Be sure to use a crimping tool.
