Step 3 Attach the building ground wire to the building ground stud (see Figure D-4).
Warning
The DC ground connection in the CDE serves as a functional earth point to maintain the full EMI and
EMC integrity of the equipment. The purpose is to mitigate the damaging effects of electrostatic
discharge. This connection should be installed by a trained service person and the equipment is to be
installed per local code or local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ). The building ground wire should
not exceed 3 meters in length and be sized similarity to the conductors used for the DC power
connections (–48 VDC and +Return).
