Grounding 
This section provides instructions for verifying that the equipment is properly 
grounded. 
Safety Plugs (USA Only) 
This equipment may be equipped with either a 3-terminal (grounding-type) safety 
plug or a 2-terminal (polarized) safety plug. The wide blade or the third terminal is 
provided for safety. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type or 
polarized safety plug. 
To properly ground this equipment, follow these safety guidelines: 
 Grounding-Type Plug - For a 3-terminal plug (one terminal on this plug is a 
protective grounding pin), insert the plug into a grounded mains, 3-terminal 
outlet.  
						

							 
  Important Safety Instructions  
78-4025112-01 Rev H0 xiii 
 
Note:  This plug fits only one way. If this plug cannot be fully inserted into the 
outlet, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete 3-terminal outlet. 
 Polarized Plug - For a 2-terminal plug (a polarized plug with one wide blade 
and one narrow blade), insert the plug into a polarized mains, 2-terminal outlet 
in which one socket is wider than the other. 
Note:  If this plug cannot be fully inserted into the outlet, try reversing the plug. 
If the plug still fails to fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete 2-terminal 
outlet. 
Grounding Terminal 
If this equipment is equipped with an external grounding terminal, attach one end of 
an 18-gauge wire (or larger) to the grounding terminal; then, attach the other end of 
the wire to a ground, such as a grounded equipment rack. 
Safety Plugs (European Union) 
 Class I Mains Powered Equipment – Provided with a 3-terminal AC inlet and 
requires connection to a 3-terminal mains supply outlet via a 3-terminal power 
cord for proper connection to the protective ground. 
Note:  The equipotential bonding terminal provided on some equipment is not 
designed to function as a protective ground connection. 
 Class II Mains Powered Equipment – Provided with a 2-terminal AC inlet that 
may be connected by a 2-terminal power cord to the mains supply outlet. No 
connection to the protective ground is required as this class of equipment is 
provided with double or reinforced and/or supplementary insulation in 
addition to the basic insulation provided in Class I equipment. 
Note:  Class II equipment, which is subject to EN 50083-1, is provided with a 
chassis mounted equipotential bonding terminal. See Equipotential Bonding for 
connection instructions.   
Equipotential Bonding
