ELECTRICAL POWER INSTALLATION

Electrical power may be applied by simply plugging the system into a grounded,

three wire outlet. BE CERTAIN THAT THE OUTLET HAS AN ADEQUATE EARTH

GROUND. INSUFFICIENT EARTH GROUND CONNECTIONS CAN HARM THE

UNIT AND PREVENT INTERNAL PROTECTION CIRCUITRY FROM PERFORMING

PROPERLY.
It is recommended that a separate circuit breaker be used with the system.

Remember that when the breaker is on, and the unit is plugged in, 120vac is

contained within the system even though the internal STANDBY/OPERATE switch

may be turned off.
If the unit is to be installed in a location where large or high voltage motors are in use

a power line transient suppressor is recommended to insure that the unit is not

affected by surges and spikes in the 120VAC power to the unit. If such a device is

needed, contact Microtel for assistance.

The internal system fuse is a 1/4 amp fuse (Littlefuse #312.250), or equivalent.

WHEN INSPECTING OR REPLACING THE FUSE, YOU MUST UNPLUG THE

SYSTEM OR THROW THE CIRCUIT BREAKER SUPPLYING POWER TO THE

UNIT.
