Chapter 4: System Installation Figure 4-8. AC Power Mating Connector Installing AC Power Cable to Robot 1. Connect the AC power cable to your facility AC power source. Do not turn on AC power at this time. See Typical AC Power Installation with Single-Phase Supply on page 51 and Single- Phase Load across L1 and L2 of a Three-Phase Supply on page 51. 2. Plug the AC connector into the AC power connector on the interface panel on the robot. 3. Secure the AC connector with the locking latch. 4.8 Grounding the Hornet 565 Proper grounding is essential for safe and reliable robot operation. NOTE : The resistance of the ground conductor must be ≤10 Ω. Grounding Robot-Mounted Equipment DANGER:
Failing to ground robot-mounted equipment or tooling that uses hazardous voltages could lead to injury or death of a person touching the end-effector when an elec- trical fault condition exists. If hazardous voltages are present at any user-supplied robot-mounted equipment or tooling, you must install a ground connection for that equipment or tooling. Hazardous voltages can be considered anything in excess of 30 VAC (42.4 VAC peak) or 60 VDC. If there will be hazardous voltages present at the tool flange or end-effector, you must: l Connect the mounting frame to protective earth ground. l Ground the robot base to the mounting frame.
