Before you install a DC power cord, refer to Appendix A,

Specifications

, for the

DC power supply.

Warning

The DC power supply cord requires at least a 14 AWG wire (maximum 10 AWG
wire). The CSS 11503 draws a maximum of 10 amps.

Warning

Use copper conductors only.

Warning

Before working on equipment that is connected to power lines, remove jewelry
(including rings, necklaces, and watches). Metal objects will heat up when
connected to power and ground and can cause serious burns or weld the metal
object to the terminals.

Warning

Before performing the DC installation procedure, ensure that power is removed
from the DC circuit. To ensure that all power is off, locate the circuit breaker
that services the DC circuit and switch it off.

Warning

When you are installing or replacing the unit, the ground connection must
always be made first and disconnected last.
