INSTALLATION
1. Inspect panel and accessories to make sure everything is
complete and in good condition.
2. For rack set up, install panel on the rack using appropriate size
screws and star washers on all four mounting holes. If equipment
rack is not electrically connected to Earth ground, connect a ground
cable from the ground stud on the back of the panel to a known
Earth ground point. Otherwise, the four mounting screws and
washers are sufficient for earth ground connection.
OR
For non-rack set up, connect a ground cable from the ground stud
on the back of the panel to a known Earth ground point.
3. Remove the plastic shield(s) covering the output terminal
block(s) located on the back of the panel. Connect the positive of
the load to the positive terminal point (labeled “+”) and the
negative of the load to the negative terminal point (labeled “-“).
Table 1. Fuse Status LED
Table 2. Form “C” Alarm
4. Install fuse on the front of the panel for each output terminal block.
The fuse number on the front of the panel matches the output
terminal block number on the back of the panel. Use fuse size that
is
a few amps higher than the intended load. For terminal blocks with
no load connected, insert any size fuse to prevent the LED on the front
of the panel from turning on and the alarm from activating if the form
“C” alarm is used.
5. Remove the plastic caps covering the input insulated studs.
Connect the positive of the power source to the red insulated stud
(labeled “+”) and the negative of the power source to the black
insulated stud (labeled “-“).
6. Re-install plastic shield(s) to the output terminal block(s) and
plastic caps to the input studs.
7. For form “C” alarm monitoring, connect your external alarm circuit
to the alarm connector located on the back of the panel. Depending
on your alarm circuit (refer to table 2), you can connect it between
normally open (NO) and common (C), normally close (NC) and
common (C), or both. The alarm connector can be disconnected from
the panel for easy installation.
8. Power up the distribution panel, and check for proper operation of
the connected load(s), fuse status LEDs and form “C” alarm (if using).

To reduce the risk of personal injury and property damage, please
exercise caution and follow the warnings below.
No user serviceable parts inside. Only ICT personnel are
authorized to service the unit
Keep sources of moisture away from the unit.
Read manual completely before starting installation or operation of
unit. Manual should be saved for future reference.
Observe correct polarities when making the input and output
connections.
Securely tighten all connections and insert fuses fully. Refer to
product specifications for maximum torque for the connectors.
Use appropriate wire size for both input and output connections.
Connect unit to an Earth ground point.
Turn off power source before installing/removing fuses,
connecting/disconnecting loads, or connecting/disconnecting
power source.
Allow input insulated studs and fuses to cool off before handling.
Depending on the current flowing through them, they may be too
hot to touch.
Do not connect any power source to the output terminal blocks.
Doing so will cause the fuse status LEDs and alarm to not work
properly.
It is recommended that the power source be equipped with current
limit protection.
WARNINGS

ICT STANDARD DC DISTRIBUTION PANEL
The ICT180S-12 Standard DC Distribution Panel was designed for
either 12 or 24VDC applications. It provides 12 output positions
that are individually protected by blade type fuses. Nine of the
outputs use the ATO/ATC blade fuse and are rated up to 25A each.
Three of the outputs use the JCASE fuse and are rated up to 40A
each. Each positive output terminal point is connected through a
fuse to a positive internal bus. All negative output terminal points
are connected to a negative internal bus.
Fuse status can be monitored through the LEDs. These fuses and
LEDs are located on the front of the Panel for easy monitoring and
replacement. Form “C” alarm contacts (C/NC/NO) are provided on
the back of the panel for an external alarm circuit. All these
features are packaged in a 1RU enclosure to save valuable rack
space, and 19” wide front plate to fit all standard 19” equipment
racks.
