Installation Considerations
1. Connect PowerLine devices into electrical outlets that are not controlled by a
wall switch. This will help you to avoid accidentally turning o power to the
device.
2. Do not connect your PowerLine devices to extension cords, surge protectors, or
power strips. Doing this might prevent your devices from working correctly, or
may reduce network performance.
3. Avoid plugging your PowerLine devices into electrical outlets that are located
near appliances that use a lot of power, such as washers, dryers, and refrigerators.
Doing this could prevent the adapter from working correctly, or may negatively
impact network performance.
4. Verify that your PowerLine devices are electrically rated to operate with the
power available in your location.
5. Be sure to plug the power cables into properly grounded electrical outlets in
order to help prevent against electrical shock.
