PROTECTIVE EARTHING

The protective earth connection to the DCS 70 is provided via the three core mains lead. The
earth wire in the mains cord (Green/Yellow) is connected in the factory to the earth terminal
within the system. The Earth wire is connected directly to the bottom left hand corner of the
Power Supply case
The protective earth (PE) is used for surge protection and for the electrical safety of the
system. The system must be plugged into a GPO socket that is correctly earthed. The PE
provides all system earthing requirements, a TRC is not required and should not be
connected.
The equipment, users and service personnel must be protected against possible voltage and
current surges on exchange lines when working on the KSU. This must be done using one, or
both, of the following methods when installing or working on the system -
• Plug the mains lead into the GPO socket, ensuring that the socket is turned off.
• Isolate the exchange lines from the system. This may be done by isolating the lines at a
distribution frame.
The Power Supply has fuses in both the mains active and neutral legs, therefore caution
should be used when working on or near the power supply. Turn OFF the power supply
switch on the KSU before working on the system.
