AC Power

The AC voltage operating ranges for the CQ Series are

85–134 V and 165–264 V, at 50 or 60 Hz. The CQ Series

performs surge suppression for high voltage transients

and can safely withstand voltages up to 275 VAC.

Continuous voltages above 275 VAC may

damage the unit!

The Intelligent AC power supply protects the drivers

and amplifier components when an AC source is applied

to the CQ by

• auto-selecting the voltage;

• performing surge suppression and minimizing

inrush current;

• filtering EMI.

After three seconds, the main power supply is slowly

ramped on. The CQ Series uses a NEMA L6-20P or

IEC 309 male power inlet and satisfies UL, CSA, and

EC safety standards.

Use the following AC cable wiring diagram to create

international or special-purpose power connectors:

brown = hot

blue =

neutral

yellow/green =

earth ground

(chassis)

AC cable color code

If the colors referred to in the diagram don't correspond

to the terminals in your plug, use the following

guidelines:

• Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked

with an N or colored black.

• Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked

with an L or colored red.

• Connect the green and yellow wire to the

terminal marked with an E (or ) or colored

green (or green and yellow).

Power Requirements

The CQ presents a dynamic load to the AC mains which

causes the amount of current to fluctuate between quiet

and loud operating levels. Since different types of

cables and circuit breakers heat up at varying rates, it

is essential to understand the types of current ratings

and how they correspond to circuit breaker and cable

specifications.

The maximum continuous RMS current is the maximum

RMS current in a period of at least 10 seconds. It is

used to calculate the temperature increase in cables,

which is used to select cables that conform to electrical

code standards. It is also used to select the rating for

slow-reacting thermal breakers.

The maximum burst RMS current is the maximum

RMS current in a period of approximately 1 second. It

is used to select the rating for most magnetic breakers.

The maximum peak current during burst is used to

select the rating for fast-reacting magnetic breakers

and to calculate the peak voltage drop in long AC

cables according to the formula

Vpk

drop

= Ipk x Total Cable Resistance

Use the table below as a guide to select cables and

circuit breakers with appropriate ratings for your

operating voltage.

The minimum electrical service amperage required by

a system of CQs is the sum of the maximum continuous

RMS current for each speaker. We recommend allowing

an additional 30% above the minimum amperage to

prevent peak voltage drops at the service entry.
