Hello friends, I just got used triad N-67A isolation transformer and on the secondary output,there is another 3rd shield wire.I am wondering what would be the best way to connect that wire and what is it for? Thanks

Google will tell you. Since you didn't specify what wire you have left..

Here is the datasheet: http://www.mouser.com/catalog/specsheets/N-67A.pdf

If you are asking about the white wire on the secondary, it can be connected to chassis ground.

Thanks jake, yes i was looking at the same datasheet and yes i am talking about white shield wire.So can i connect to the transformer chasis? And what is the function of this wire.
Thanks.

Google isolation transformer static shield.

Connect it to the chassis near the secondary device connections.
