Cable Installation Safety Considerations
Interconnecting, communications, and Class 2 dc power cables should be separated from electrical light
or other Class 1 circuit by at least 2 inches. The exception is where Class 1 wiring or power circuits are
run in a raceway, or are metal-sheathed or metal–clad, or are permanently separated from the conductors
of the other circuitry by a continuous and firmly fixed nonconductor, such as porcelain tubes or flexible
tubing, in addition to the insulation on the wire.
Communications cables and in-building wiring should be listed and marked for the purpose according to
NEC Article 800. Optional cabling kits comply with these requirements and are recommended.
Telephone Line Lightning and Over-voltage Protection
The ITA2000A employs over-current phone line fuses F1 and F2. These fuses protect against occasional
extreme fault conditions that may get past the primary protectors. An example of a fault condition is a
power line cross. If these fuses ever require replacement, replace F1 or F2 only with the same type
Bussmann C515S 1.25A fuse.
For maximum surge and lightning protection, building primary (over-voltage) protectors must be
installed at the point where the phone lines enter the radio equipment building. Primary protectors are
usually required by local codes and should be provided by your leased line provider.
