EMI

The EMI might be coupled from the source to the L1000-A through the following coupling mechanisms:

•

Capacitive coupling

•

Inductive coupling

•

Radiative coupling

•

Common impedance coupling

•

Conductive coupling

To prevent EMI, take the following actions:

•

Take measures against interference from the power grid.

•

Do not use the L1000-A together with the grounding equipment or lightning-prevention equipment
of power equipment, and keep the L1000-A far away from them.

•

Keep the L1000-A far away from high-power radio launchers, radars, and equipment with high
frequency or high current to make sure the EMI levels do not exceed the compliant range.

•

Use electromagnetic shielding when necessary.

Lightning protection

To protect the L1000-A from lightning better, do as follows:

•

Make sure the chassis is correctly grounded. For how to ground the L1000-A, see "

Grounding the

L1000-A

."

•

Make sure the grounding terminal of the AC power receptacle is correctly grounded.

•

Install a lightning protector at the input end of the power supply to enhance lightning protection
capability. For more information, see "

Connecting the AC power supply to a power strip with

lightning protection
