LA-E (Lightning Arrestor for 230VAC Rack Mount Models)
The LA-E lightning arrestor mounts to the back of the front panel and is secured by the
existing screw. This option must be hard-wired into the Rack Mount unit using quick-connect
connectors.
Remove the wing nut from the screw on the LA-E mounting bracket. Position the LA-E
and secure using the same screw.
Trim the wires supplied with the LA-E fl ush, leaving no copper wire exposed. Insert
the trimmed end into the quick-splice connector until the end is fl ush with the internal
wire stop. Fold this end of the connector shut and crimp tight using pliers. Repeat for
additional wire.
Locate the blue wire from the AC power cord. Place into the open end of the quick-splice
connector (connected to the blue wire on the LA-E), fold, and crimp.
Locate the brown wire from the AC power cord. Place it into the open end of the quick-
splice connector (connected to the brown wire on the LA-E), fold, and crimp.
