IBM A00 Printer User Manual


 
Power Cord
Position the printer so the power cord can plug into the power receptacle without
putting stress on the power cord. The standard power cord length in the U.S.A. and
in all other countries is 2.74 m (9 ft). A 1.83 m (6 ft) power cord also is available in
the U.S.A.
Branch Circuits and Grounding
A machine must be properly grounded. It is recommended that an insulated
green-wire ground, the same size as the phase wire, be installed between the
branch circuit panel and the receptacle.
For personal safety, the ground should have sufficiently low impedance to limit the
voltage to ground and to facilitate the operation of circuit-protective devices in the
circuit. For example, the ground path must not exceed 1 ohm for 120-volt,
20-ampere branch circuit devices.
DANGER
<1> The construction of this printer provides extra protection against the
risk of electric shock by grounding appropriate metal parts. The extra
protection may not function unless the power cord is connected to a
properly-grounded receptacle. This machine has a grounding-type (3-wire)
power cord because grounding is necessary. It is the responsibility of the
customer or the person installing the machine to connect it to a
properly-grounded receptacle. Seek professional assistance before using
an adapter or extension cord; such a device could interrupt the grounding
circuit.
If this printer is connected to a receptacle that has been incorrectly
connected to the building wiring, serious electric shock could result.
