Attaching a Chassis Ground Connection
Use the following procedure to attach the grounding lug to the chassis ground connector on your router
chassis:
Step 1 Use the wire stripper to strip one end of the 6-AWG wire approximately 0.75 inches (19.05 mm).
Step 2 Insert the 6-AWG wire into the wire receptacle on the grounding lug.
Step 3 Use the crimping tool to carefully crimp the wire receptacle around the wire; this step is required to
ensure a proper mechanical connection.
Figure 2-9 Attaching the Grounding Lug
Step 4 Attach the grounding lug with the wire on the left to avoid having the grounding wire overlapping the
power supply. See
Figure 2-9.
