The unit has a Technical Earth terminal located at the rear panel. Its
use is recommended. This is not a Protective earth for electrical shock
protection. The terminal is provided to:
1. Ensure all equipment chassis fixed in the rack are at the same
Technical earth potential. To achieve this, connect a wire between
the Technical earth terminal and a suitable point on the rack.
2. Eliminate the migration of stray charges when connecting between
equipment.
Warning: If the moulded plug fitted to the mains cable supplied with
this unit is not required, please dispose of it safely. Failure to do this
may endanger life as live ends may be exposed if the removed plug is
inserted into a mains outlet.
Caution: Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not
likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against
them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.
