CHAPTER 2
POWER CONNECTOR WIRING CONVENTIONS
The MICA loudspeaker requires a grounded outlet. It is very
important that the system be properly grounded in order to
operate safely and properly. Figures 2.2, 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5
illustrate correct wiring for the creation of power cables and
distribution systems.

Figure 2.5. VEAM multi-pin connector power pin-out
If the loudspeaker is fitted with the VEAM multipin
connector, see the Meyer Sound document VEAM Cable
Wiring Reference (PN 06.033.113) for wiring conventions
and pin-outs for AC, audio, and RMS connections.
Meyer Sound offers the VIM-4 (VEAM interface module) to
distribute power, audio and RMS to MICA loudspeakers
fitted with 4 VEAM connectors in the front and a single-
phase IEC 309 32-amp connector in the rear, as shown
below in Figure 2.6.
