Installation

Step 6: Connecting Loads

This section describes how to connect loads to the power supply for both single and multiple loads.

WARNING: Shock hazard

There is a shock hazard at the power supply output when operating at an output greater than 40 V. To protect personnel against accidental contact with hazardous voltages, ensure that the load and its connections have no accessible live parts.

CAUTION: Cable damage

When making connections to the output terminals, ensure terminals of opposite polarity do not touch. Load cables and sense wires should be provided with strain relief.

DC Output Connectors

WARNING: Shock hazard

Disconnect the AC input before making any connections. A shock hazard may be present at the output terminals. Allow 15 seconds after the AC power has been removed before making any connections.

6 V–40 V Models

The 6 V–40 V models are equipped with output terminals, as shown in Figure 1-3.

60 V–150 V Models

The 60 V–150 V models are equipped with output connectors, as shown in Figure 1-4. These models have output currents that may require users to use wire diameters that would not fit into a single output connector, so there are two output connectors in parallel to increase the potential current carrying capacity of load wiring.

300 V–600 V Models

The 300 V–600 V models are equipped with output connectors, as shown in Figure 1-5.
