6-gauge copper ground wire (insulated or noninsulated)

Four leads of 18-gauge copper wire

Wire-stripping tools for stripping 6- and 18-gauge wires

This equipment is intended to be grounded. Ensure that the host is connected to earth ground during 
normal use. Statement 39

When installing the unit, always make the ground connection first and disconnect it last. Statement 42

To make sure that the equipment is reliably connected to earth ground, follow the grounding 
procedure instructions, and use a UL-listed lug suitable for number-6 AWG wire and two number-10-32 
ground-lug screws.

Before you ground the switch to earth ground, you must prepare the ground wire. Follow these steps. 
Make sure to follow any grounding requirements at your site.

Locate the ground lug and the two number-10-32 screws. A ground lug and screws are located both on 
the front panel and on the rear panel of the switch. Only one ground connection is required.

Use a standard Phillips screwdriver or a ratcheting torque screwdriver with a Phillips head. 
Set the screws and the ground lug aside.

If your ground wire is insulated, use a wire stripping tool to strip the 6-gauge ground wire to 0.5 inch 
(12.7 millimeter [mm]) ± 0.02 inch (0.5 mm) as shown in 

.

Slide the open end of the ground lug over the exposed area of the 6-gauge wire.

Using a Panduit crimping tool, crimp the ground lug to the 6-gauge wire.
