WARNING: The voltages present on AC circuits can cause electrocution.
Before making any electrical connections to the RIM100, ensure that power is
removed from all AC circuits that will be connected to the RIM100. Only restore
AC power after all connections have been made to the RIM100 and the splash
guard has been re-installed.
WARNING: User supplied voltage sense cables must be 18 gauge or larger,
have insulation rated to 600V, and must have the conductor connected to the
hot lead of the AC power source protected by a fuse rated at 3A or less (the
current consumed by the voltage sense circuit on the RIM100 is negligible, at
less than 10mA).
2.4.2.1 AC Load
Please refer to Figure 3 for connecting the RIM100 to an AC load. You may connect either
terminal from the load to either terminal of the pair of terminals on the RIM100. This figure
shows the connection of the monitored load to channel 1 via the terminals named V1+ and
V1-. Connections to other channels are similar.

2.4.2.2 DC Load
Please refer to Figure 4 for connecting the RIM100 to a DC load. Please note in this case that
you must connect the positive voltage from the monitored load to the terminal marked “+” and
the negative voltage from the monitored load to the terminal marked “-”. This figure shows the
connection of the monitored load to channel 1 via the terminals named V1+ and V1-.
Connections to other channels are similar.
