Appendix C: Power Cord and Line Fuse Requirements for
the Benchtop Mainframe
The benchtop mainframe comes with two power cords and three fuses (one fuse
is already installed). You must determine the correct fuse and power cord for
your configuration. This is important to avoid overloading the power distribution
system and ensures that you comply with the National Electrical Code.
The power consumption depends on the number and type of instrument modules
installed in the benchtop mainframe. Table 7 lists the power consumed for each
module.
To determine the total power consumption perform the following steps:
1. Use Table 7 to determine the power consumption for each module in the
benchtop mainframe.
2. Add the power for each module to determine the total power consumption.
3. Determine at which line voltage you will be operating the mainframe.
4. Refer to Figure 22 on page 66 to determine the proper power cord and line
fuse for your mainframe.
