Power Products Frequently Asked Questions
| Question | Do the PS series power supplies have an isolated ground or is the negative leg of the output tied to ground either directly or indirectly by a passive or active component? |
| Answer | The output is isolated from the input and the -Vout is floating. The only connections to PE are the ones made by equipping the Y-Caps from Neutral to PE, Live to PE, -Vout to PE and +Vout to PE. These capacitors are used to meet the EMC emission standards. |
