General Installation Requirements
CAUTION
All devices not isolated by an Island Bus
Expansion module (TXA1.IBE) must be
connected to the same grounding point.
CAUTION
TX-I/O components require a system
neutral with single point earth ground. Do
not connect these components to a
floating system neutral.
Service Box Earth Grounding of
System Neutral
System Neutral () must be continuous throughout the
TX-I/O bus.
System Neutral is required to be earth-
grounded at a single point only.
For a PXA Service Box: Connect the green wire
to the earth ground stud under the wire cover.
For migrating with an MEC Service Box: The
earth ground is installed in the primary field
panel by a single external jumper between the
service box E terminal and N terminal.
For a Third-party Transformer connect the
transformer secondary neutral to the building-
approved earth ground at the terminal block.
When a separate 24Vac source is installed in
any secondary field panel isolate power using a
TXA1.IBE communication module in primary
and each secondary field panel.
