EMI

The EMI might be coupled from the source to the L1000-A through the following coupling mechanisms:

Capacitive coupling

Inductive coupling

Radiative coupling

Common impedance coupling

Conductive coupling

To prevent EMI, take the following actions:

Take measures against interference from the power grid.

Do not use the L1000-A together with the grounding equipment or lightning-prevention equipment
of power equipment, and keep the L1000-A far away from them.

Keep the L1000-A far away from high-power radio launchers, radars, and equipment with high
frequency or high current to make sure the EMI levels do not exceed the compliant range.

Use electromagnetic shielding when necessary.

Lightning protection

To protect the L1000-A from lightning better, do as follows:

Make sure the chassis is correctly grounded. For how to ground the L1000-A, see "

Grounding the

L1000-A

."

Make sure the grounding terminal of the AC power receptacle is correctly grounded.

Install a lightning protector at the input end of the power supply to enhance lightning protection
capability. For more information, see "

Connecting the AC power supply to a power strip with

lightning protection
