Installing Series 505 Power Supply (continued)
After installing the power supply, you are ready to connect your power
supply to an external power source. Observe these guidelines as you carry
out the procedure below.
• Use 14 to 22 AWG solid or stranded wire. If you use stranded wire, the
wire should be twisted and trimmed.
• Strip insulation back 0.4 inches (10 mm).
• Insert the wires fully into the terminal block so that the insulation
butts against the block.
NOTE: The connector is rated for 50 wire insertions at no more than 5 in–lb
(0.56 N–m) torque.

WARNING
Electrical shock hazard is possible if you do not turn off all power before
attempting the wiring procedure.
Failure to turn off power could cause death or serious injury to personnel,
and/or damage to equipment.
Ensure that all power is disabled before attempting the wiring procedures.
1. Disconnect power to the base.
2. Loosen the three power connector screws.

CAUTION
The PPX:505–6660 and PPX:505–6660–A power supplies have selectable
voltage. Ensure that the voltage selector is set to match the input power. See
Figure 3-4 for an example of how to set the voltage selector.
Attempting to operate the power supply at 220 VAC with 110 VAC selected, or
110 VAC with 220 VAC selected, results in damage to the power supply.
Double-check your power supply voltage before you connect input power.
