Grounding Lug
Required for UL458 Marine and RV standard compliant installations.
Grounding points are provided inside and on the back of The KID.
This ground lug is necessary to satisfy the requirements of UL458 Marine and RV standard.
Drill a 7/32" (5.5mm) hole approximately where shown. Make sure that you have room
inside the unit for screwhead clearance.
Install the external ground lug as shown below with the hardware supplied.
Be sure to use the #1 0 lockwasher as shown. This is to cut through any paint
overspray that might interfere with making a solid ground connection.
Verify the ground connection using a digital meter with the beep setting. There must be less
than 0.1 Ohm of resistance between the ground lug and the back cover mounting screw.
