Safety warnings for ALL Electric Utility models
Safety warnings for HV and DHV models.
All equipment must be installed according to the applicable country wiring codes.
Grounding of HV and DHV models
The Electric Utility series of IOLAN units have a chassis ground screw. This connection must be
connected to "Equipment Ground" for DC installations or "Safety Ground" for AC installations. A
second “earth ground” connection is provided for secondary grounding. This should only be used in
conjunction with the grounding screw provided on the terminal connector.
Note:
The Electric Utility series of IOLAN units do not have a power switch, and an
appropriately rated circuit breaker must be installed externally to the unit. If two power
sources are used, each source must have a circuit breaker. As a safety precaution you
should not rely upon the unit's front panel LEDs as a power indicator.
Note:
WARNING

controlled by the authority responsible for the location.
Note:
For your safety, before attempting to connect or modify any of the electrical connections
to the unit, please be sure all wiring is disconnected from any live power source. Power
should only be applied when you are sure that the wiring is correct and any safety covers
are properly installed.
