AC POWER REQUIREMENTS
JBL DrivePack DPC-2 systems are equipped with a DPC-2 multi-channel Dual-Bridged Technology™ power
amplifier and loudspeaker specific DSP electronics. The system requires appropriate AC power.
CAUTION:
In compliance with safety agency criteria and proper system operation, it is critical that the sys-
tem installer observe all electrical safety practices at all times and provide proper earth grounding
for all AC Power connections.
AC POWER CORD KIT
120VAC North America NEMA 5-15 Edison type AC plug to PowerCon
®
connector and 240V Europe CEE 7/7
Schuko type AC plug to PowerCon connector cord sets are provided with this JBL DrivePack product.
One spare gray Neutrik (P/N NAC3FCB) PowerCon connector is included in the AC Power Cord Set for your
convenience to create a pass-through AC power cable. To create a light-duty pass-through cable the system
installer may choose to simply cut off the AC plug from one of the provided AC cord sets and replace it with the
provided Gray PowerCon AC Outlet connector. Follow the wiring convention indicated in Table 1.
NOTE: Tighten set screws to 2.5Nm (1.8lb-ft) torque to prevent opening by hand.
CAUTION:
In compliance with safety agency criteria and proper system operation, it is critical that the
system installer observe all electrical safety practices at all times and provide proper earth
grounding for all AC Power connections.
USER-FABRICATED AC POWER DISTRIBUTION
System owners may choose to fabricate or purchase a custom AC Power cable infrastructure optimized for their
specific JBL DrivePack system configuration. See Table 1 for custom application wiring and connector information.
NOTE: Parts not provided.
CAUTION:
Do not exceed 80% current rating of any AC connector at any time! See AC Power Rating Table
for current draw information.
