-
The SG and FG terminals are separated internally in this product.
-
When the FG terminal is connected, be sure the wire is grounded. Not grounding this product can result in excessive electromagnetic interference (EMI).
-
Make sure the ground wire is either the same or heavier gauge than the power wires.
-
Do not use aluminum wires in the power supply's power cord.
-
Use copper wire rated for 75 °C (167 °F) or higher.
-
The conductor type of DC power cord is solid or stranded wire.
-
If the ends of the individual wires are not twisted correctly, the wires may create a short circuit.
-
Use the SELV (Safety Extra-Low Voltage) circuit and LIM (Limited Energy) circuit for DC input.
