The pin section of an AN/MS connector is normally installed on?

  1. The live side of a circuit

  2. The ground side of a circuit

  3. The control side of the circuit

  4. The output side of the circuit

The correct answer is: The ground side of a circuit

The pin section of an AN/MS connector is installed on the ground side of a circuit because it is designed to provide a low-resistance connection between the electrical component and the ground. This helps to reduce the risk of electrical shock and protects the components from any stray electrical currents. Installing the pin section on the live side of the circuit would not provide the necessary grounding and could potentially cause damage to the components. Choosing the control or output side of the circuit would also not provide the necessary grounding and could disrupt the functionality of the circuit. Therefore, the ground side of the circuit is the most appropriate location for the pin section of an AN/MS connector.
