DC Power Cord Preparation

  • 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.

  • To prevent the possibility of a terminal short, use a pin terminal that has an insulating sleeve.

  • If the ends of the individual wires are not twisted correctly, the wires may create a short circuit.

  • The conductor type is solid or stranded wire.

  • Use copper wire rated for 75 °C (167 °F) or higher.

  • Use the SELV (Safety Extra-Low Voltage) circuit and LIM (Limited Energy) circuit for DC input.

Recommended cross section 0.75...3.5 mm2 (18...12 AWG)*1
Conductor type Solid or stranded wire*2
Conductor length

*1 Since a high level of current flows in the DC model, thick wires are recommended to minimize voltage drops due to wiring.

*2 When using stranded wires, confirm the level of current supported by the wire.
