This product is intended to be supplied by a Listed pluggable A via Class I external power supply adapter using a power cord connected to a socket outlet with an earthing connection.
Grounding — To prevent damage to your equipment, connections that enter from outside the building should pass through a lightning/surge protector, and be properly grounded. Use an electrostatic discharge workstation (ESD) and/or wear an anti-static wrist strap while you work. In addition to the grounding terminal of the plug, on the back panel, there is another, separate terminal for earthing.

This product has a separate protective earthing terminal provided on the back of the product in addition to the grounding terminal of the attachment plug. This separate protective earthing terminal must be permanently connected to the earth with a green with yellow stripe conductor minimum size # 22AWG and the connection is to be installed by a qualified service personnel.
