If an autotransformer is utilized, the main body or power supply may be damaged. • If the used power supply generates a surge, connect a surge absorber to the power supply to absorb the surge. • In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator, inverter motor, etc.) is used in the vicinity of this product, connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the equipment to an actual ground. • Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or power lines or put them in the same raceway. This can cause malfunction due to induction. • Damage or burnout may result in case of short circuit of load or miswiring. • Make a cable length as short as possible to lessen noise pickup.
