Wiring Requirements

ATTENTION

Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or wiring your M

oxa VPort 26A-1MP.

Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and common wire. Observe all el

ectrical codes

dictating the maximum current allowable for each wire size.

If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could overheat, causing serious damage to your

equipment.

You should also pay attention to the following:

• Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power wiring and device wiring paths must

cross make sure the wires are perpendicular at the intersection point.

NOTE: Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring in the same wire conduit. To avoid

interference, wires with different signal characteristics should be routed separately.

• You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to determine which wires should be kept separate.

The rule of thumb is that wiring that shares similar electrical characteristics can be bundled together.

• Keep input wiring and output wiring separate.

• It is strongly advised that you label wiring to all devices in the system when necessary.
