Module Grounding and Grounding Checks
Please refer to Grounding Requirements in the Pre-Installation section of this manual for earth ground
specifications.
See Appendix F for system grounding requirements.
Before operating the system, perform the following grounding checks to ensure proper operation, personal
safety, and to reduce emission of radio-frequency interference:
• Ensure the power cord ground wire is properly connected to the ground in the line disconnect box.
• Ensure the power cord ground wire is properly connected to the power supply terminal TB1. Refer to
Connecting the Power in the Pre-Installation section of this manual.
• Ensure that all electrical connections are tight to avoid excessive heating.
