Panamax product near heat emitting appliances such as a radiator or heat register.
Do not install this product where excessive
moisture is present; for example, near a bathtub, sink, pool, basement floor, fish tank, etc.
It is not uncommon for a building to be improperly grounded.
In order to protect your equipment, and validate the warranty, Panamax
products must be plugged into a properly grounded 3-wire outlet.
Additionally, building wiring and grounding must conform to
applicable NEC (USA) or CEC (Canada) codes for the Panamax warranty to be valid.
Do not use 2-prong adapters with this product.
If an extension cord is required, use only Panamax #GEC1410.
If at any time your
surge protector indicates a Line Fault, call your electrician to correct the building wiring.
Note to CATV Installers
This reminder is provided to call the CATV System Installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides specific guidelines for
proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as
close to the point of cable entry as practical.
A separate driven ground rod is not acceptable under the code.
POWER ON /
PROTECTION OK- (blue)
normally ON - indicates
that the power is on,
surge protector is
functioning properly,
and all connected
equipment is protected.
LINE FAULT INDICATOR-
(red)
- If lit red, indicates
an improperly wired outlet.
AC outlets are turned 90 degrees from one
another to accommodate different style
plugs or transformers.
Properly Connecting Your Surge Protector
To completely protect your equipment from power surges, every wire leading into or out of the equipment you want to protect must be connected to the
appropriate Panamax surge protector.
Damaging lightning and power surges can get into your system through any AC power or signal line (phone lines,
grounding wires, coax cables, modem cables, etc.) connected to your electrical equipment.
The $100,000 Connected Equipment Protection Policy is invalid if any wire leading into or out of the equipment is not properly connected to the
appropriate Panamax surge protector(s).
The surge protector must also be plugged into a properly wired and grounded outlet.
Please see the warranty
for details or contact the Panamax Customer Relations department with questions.
Overview
Make sure you have the right surge protector to protect your electronic equipment.
Panamax makes protectors for almost every type of electronic
equipment.
Surge protectors that may look identical from the outside can be very different on the inside.
It is very important to use the surge protector
designed for your application. Two-outlet surge protectors are not designed for use with systems having more than two AC powered components.
Panamax offers a wide range of surge protectors designed for use with larger systems. If you have any questions about which product is best for your
applications, please see our web site www.panamax.com or contact Panamax Customer Relations at 800-472-5555
