DC Power Electrical Safety Guidelines
The following electrical safety guidelines apply to a DC-powered router:
A DC-powered router is equipped with a DC terminal block that is rated for the
power requirements of a maximally configured router. To supply sufficient power,
terminate the DC input wiring on a facility DC source capable of supplying at
least 31 A @ 48 VDC per input for each power supply.
Incorporate an easily accessible disconnect device into the facility wiring. We
recommend that the 48 VDC facility DC source should be equipped with a circuit
breaker rated at 40 A (48 VDC) minimum, or as required by local code. In the
United States and Canada, the 48 VDC facility should be equipped with a circuit
breaker rated a minimum of 125% of the power provisioned for the input in
