Chapter 1. About the iCON-XT

707096-004

1-9

For units operating at 200-240V:

The three power cables required for domestic units are UL listed, CSA certified,
18/3 AWG, type SVT or SJT cable (9-foot maximum):

Terminated on one end by a 250V, 15A grounding type attachment connector
Terminated at the other end by a 250V, 15A tandem blade, grounding type

attachment plug.

For international units:

The power cable required is an 18/3 AWG, type SJT cable (9-foot maximum):

Terminated on one end by a 250V, 15A grounding type attachment plug body
Terminated at the other end by a 250V, 15A grounding type cord connector.

The cord set is marked HAR to signify appropriate safety approvals. The socket outlet
must be nearby and easily accessible, per IEC 950 Sec. 1.7.2.

Power outlet requirements

The installation site must provide a properly wired and grounded power outlet.
Circuits connected to air conditioners and devices that generate significant transient
electrical noise should be avoided.

Electrical interference and atmospheric considerations

Electrostatic discharge in the vicinity of the unit should be minimized by avoiding high
resistance floor material and carpeting that does not have anti-static properties, by
avoiding the use of plastic seats and covers, and by avoiding low humidity levels. The
unit should be located away from areas that generate electromagnetic interference (for
example, transformers, power distribution panels, welding equipment, motors, and
transmitters). Do not put the unit next to fluorescent lights. The iCON-XT should
not be installed where the atmosphere contains corrosive elements that can damage
the unit.

Do not run the power cable or signal cables in areas that produce electromagnetic
interference (for example, near transformers, switching equipment, welding equipment,
power distribution panels, and under carpets where vacuum cleaning is done). Also, do
not roll heavy equipment over the cable.
