2INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS
(1) Single-phase 3-wire line (200240 V AC)
qThe green wire from the AC power cable must be
connected to the protective earth.
wThe black and white wires from the AC power
cable can be connected to either terminal.
*Use the appropriate AC plug if required.
(2) Single-phase 2-wire line (100120 V AC)
qThe green wire from the AC power cable must be
connected to the protective earth.
wThe black wire from the AC power cable must be
connected to the hot (live) wire.
eThe white wire from the AC power cable must be
connected to the return wire.
(3) Three-phase 3-wire line (200240 V AC)
qThe green wire from the AC power cable must be
connected to the protective earth.
wThe black and white wires from the AC power
cable can be connected to 2 of 3 wires.

AC power cable connection (Except Europe version)

Unpacking

After unpacking, immediately report any damage to the
delivering carrier or dealer.Keep the shipping cartons.
For a description and a diagram of accessory equip-
ment included with the IC-PW1, see UNPACKING on
p.ii of this manual.

Ferrite core installation

The supplied ferrite core and cable clips (oand !0 in
UNPACKING) should be attached to the AC cable of
the IC-PW1 as illustrated below. This will help prevent
interference such as TVI, etc.

OPC-853 AC cable with line lter

The IC-PW1 Europe version must be used with the
OPC-853 AC cable to satisfy European EMC require-
ments.

AC power cable connection

A suitable AC power plug must be connected to the AC
power cable end.See the diagram below for connec-
tion procedures. AC input voltage is automatically se-
lected.
The IC-PW1 can accept either 100120 V AC or
200240 V AC power.*However, we recommend using
200240 V AC rather than 100120 V AC for better
power supply efficiency and longer periods of trans-
mission.
*Europe version: 230 V AC only

Selecting a location

Select a location for the linear amplier that allows ad-
equate air circulation, free from extreme heat, cold, or
vibrations, and away from TV sets, TV antenna ele-
ments, radios and other electro-magnetic sources.
The linear amplier and remote controller sections of
the IC-PW1 can be separated. The remote controller
can be placed near the operator for easy monitoring of
linear amplifier conditions at any time. See p. 10 for
separation instructions.
The linear amplier must be placed on a solid founda-
tion since it is very heavy.
Attach and position
the cable clips to
the AC cable as
illustrated.
