Installation Guide

The ground lug ships with the optionally ordered DC version PSUs. The AC-no-OS version of the N3248PXE-ON switch, which
you must special order, also ships with the ground lug.
CAUTION: Grounding conductors must be made of copper. Do not use aluminum conductors.
NOTE: Coat the one-hole lug with an antioxidant compound before crimping. Also, bring any unplated mating surfaces to a
shiny finish and coat with an antioxidant before mating. Plated mating surfaces must be clean and free from contamination.
NOTE: The rack installation ears are not suitable for grounding.
To connect the ground cable to the switch:
1. Cut your user-supplied ground cable to the wanted length.
The cable length must facilitate proper operation of the fault interrupt circuits. Use the shortest cable route allowable.
2. Crimp the ground cable inside the ground lug.
3. Attach the other end of the ground cable to a suitable ground point such as the rack or cabinet.
The rack installation ears are not a suitable grounding point.
