The input power connection is made through a three-wire power cord utilizing the
accepted international color code. The input power cord opening is sized to
accept a standard electrical conduit fitting or strain relief (supplied). An
internally-mounted terminal strip provides the input connection point. When
connecting the conduit, disconnect the power cord from the terminal strip and
remove it.

The safety ground isolation choke selector switch switches the 1.6 mH earth line
choke IN and OUT of the safety ground circuit. The ground choke is designed
and manufactured with sufficient capacity to conduct the maximum current rating
of the Model 3816/2 and at no time is the safety ground of the unit compromised.
The earth line choke avoids a double RF ground connection (safety ground and
measurement ground) in the conducted emissions test setup.
