nominal, 50 to 60 Hz

•

protect power source with an external fuse or circuit breaker,
rated at no more than 15 amps

•

connect decoder to its own branch circuit (when possible) to
reduce electrical noise

Install equipment using guidelines in publication NFPA 70E,
Electrical Safety Requirements for Employee Workplaces. In
addition:

•

do not use signal wiring and power wiring in the same conduit

•

route incoming power to the decoder using a separate path
from the communication cables (if paths must cross, their
