■This unit’s protective Earth conductor carries the leakage current from the load devices (com- puter equipment). This unit generates approximately 1.5 mA of leakage current. To ensure a safe limit of 3.5 mA, limit the total leakage current of the load devices to 2 mA.
■Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reason- ably be expected to cause the failure of the life support equipment or to significantly effect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended.
