CAUTION! While trying to connect the AC power cable to the PRU AC power port, it is possible for the
line terminal on the cable connector to contact the ground pin on the power port. If the AC
cable is energized, this will result in a direct short to ground for the AC power. To avoid
possible personal injury and equipment damage, always turn the AC power off before
connecting the AC power cable to the AC power port.
