Connecting to Power

The EISC requires power via its four-pin connector. The
keyed plug is removable and is included with the switch.
The applied voltage may be either AC or DC. For power
requirements, consult the

specifications

. Conductors in

the range of 12–24 AWG are secured in the plug by
screw terminals. The various power options are
explained below.

NOTE:

This device is intended for use with

Class 2

circuits.

5.1.2.1

DC Powered

The EISC accepts a voltage range of 10-36 VDC and draws a value of current
commensurate with 12-watt power consumption. Power conductors should be sized
accordingly. Ground is directly connected to zero volts and the equipment chassis is
isolated from zero volts. The input connections are reverse-polarity protected.

5.1.2.2

Redundant DC Powered

Redundant diode-isolated DC power inputs are provided so the EISC can operate
despite the loss of primary power. Both sources must provide 12 watts of power.
