CHAPTER 3: Installation  
CAUTION!  
Surge energy may run both directions on the ground strap. To provide  
the best protection, it is essential that the ground strap on the Surge  
Protector be connected to the chassis ground of the protected device. Do  
not lengthen the Surge Protector’s ground strap or connect it to a ground  
other than chassis ground unless instructed to do so by your supplier’s  
technical support.  
3.2.2 CONNECTING THE PSP AT A BARRIER (WALL, BUILDING ENTRANCE, ETC.)  
CAUTION!  
Surge energy may run both directions on the ground strap. To provide  
the best protection, it is essential that the ground strap on the Surge  
Protector be connected to electrical safety ground. Do not lengthen the  
Surge Protector’s ground strap or connect it to a ground not tied to safety  
ground unless instructed to do so by your supplier’s technical support.
