Installation & Maintenance

Installation Steps

1. Ensure main power is OFF before inserting the module.

2. Mount IC200PWR101D into the first slot of the VersaMax power base.

3. Wire AC input to the terminal block according to local standards.

4. Tighten terminal screws to recommended torque to prevent vibration loosening.

5. Power ON and observe the LED indicator to confirm normal operation.

   
   

Maintenance Tips

• Periodically check terminal block wires for loosening due to thermal cycling.

• Replace only with GE-certified modules to maintain electrical compatibility.

• Store spare units in dry, anti-static packaging with stable temperature.

• Avoid exposure to corrosive gases or conductive dust inside the control cabinet.
