4.2.8  Mains power cord 

The V-Series panels are powered by an external power supply which may be 

mounted in a clip on the back of the panel or located away from the panel.   If 

the power supply is not mounted in the clip on the rear of the panel the clip 

can be detached to save space by removing the two mounting screws. 

The cord to connect the external power supply to the mains supply must 

conform to the following: 

  The mains power cord shall have an IEC C13 connector at one end and 

a mains power plug at the other end. 

  An IEC C13 plug has three pins, the center pin carrying the earth / 

ground. The other two pins carry neutral and live circuits. 

  The conductors of the mains cords shall have adequate cross-sectional 

area for rated current consumption of the equipment. 

  The mains plug that connects to the mains supply must be approved 

for use in the country where the equipment is to be used. 

  The mains power cord must be an IEC mains power cord complying 

with standard IEC60320; IEC320/C13. 

  Mains power cords used in the U.S. must also comply with standard 

UL817. 

  The equipment must be connected to a mains socket outlet with a 

protective earthing connection. 

  Where the mains plug or an appliance coupler is used as the disconnect 

device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable. 

4.2.9  Power connector wiring 

The power supply is a 4 pin socket which is connected to an external 24V power supply. 

The pinout for the connector is shown below.
