2.7 Connecting to Power
The Optimux-34 chassis ground is connected to the protective ground (middle)
pin of the power connectors, for the universal power supply version of the unit.
Intentional disconnection of the protective ground is prohibited since such an
action may expose personnel to electrical shock hazards.
Before connecting or disconnecting any communication cable, the unit must be
earthed by connecting its power cord to a power outlet with an earth terminal,
and by connecting the earth terminal on the panel (if provided) to a protective
earth.
Any interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor (inside or outside the
instrument) or disconnecting of the protective earth terminal can make this unit
dangerous. Intentional interruption is prohibited.
For the universal power supply ratings, refer to the Site Requirements and
Prerequisites
section in this chapter.
