Making Control Panel Power Drop Wiring Connections
Hardwire the input power at 115/1/50-60 VAC or 220/1/50 VAC, depending on the
specifications, which are located on the Control Panel Serial Tag. The control enclosure
draws less than five (5) amps during normal operation at 115/1/50-60 VAC. The main power
switch is located on the right side of the enclosure.

Installing KwikLink Cable
Before you install flat cable, determine how much length you need to install black power
cable and grey data cable. Typical installations have equal lengths of each. This is a good
time to plan for the future, and run these cables to each possible location in the plant. Use a
straight-blade cable cutter to make the cut at each end.
