Installation

Electrical

This amplifier has been manufactured to comply with your local power supply requirements but,
before connecting the unit to the supply, ensure that the voltage (printed on the rear panel) is correct.

Make sure power outlets conform to the power requirements listed on the back of the unit. Damage
caused by connecting to improper AC voltage is not covered by the warranty.

Safety Warning

Where a mains plug or appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, it should remain readily
operable.

Where the amplifier is mounted in a rack and permanently connected to the mains, then the rack
should be installed with a readily accessible connector or an all pole circuit breaker.

This unit is fitted with a 3-wire power cord. For safety reasons the earth lead should not be

disconnected in any circumstance. If ground loops are encountered, consult the section on ‘Input
Connections’ later in this manual.

The wiring colours are:

230 V Areas: Earth = Green and Yellow 120 V Areas: Earth: = Green
Neutral: = Blue Neutral: = White
Live: = Brown Live: = Black

Warning: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or
moisture.
