(a)

For power supply wiring, use a cable of 2

 

mm2 or more to prevent a voltage drop from

 

occurring.

(b) For the function ground terminal (PE

 

terminal), use a cable of 2 mm2 or more and

 

provide Class D grounding (100 Ω or less).

 

The appropriate length for the ground cable

 

is within 20 m.

 

1] Instrumentation panel and relay panel

 

grounding may be shared.

 

2] Avoid grounding shared with equipment

 

that may generate noise such as high-

 

frequency heating furnace, large-scaled

 

power panel (several kW or more),

Shielded insulated transformer

filter

thyristor exchanger, electric welders, etc.

3] Connect a noise filter (NF) to the power

cable.

(c) Tighten the terminal screws within the torque

(d)Use the same power supply system for the basic and expansion units.

Tighten each terminal screw using a torque of the specified torque range.

When using a crimp terminal, use one with an outer diameter of 6 mm or less.

Use only up to two crimp terminals in the same terminal. Avoid clamping down more than three at the same time.

Only one piece of cable can be wired per terminal if the cable type is between AWG14 and AWG22 (cable thickness ranging between 2.1 mm2 and 0.36 mm2), but two pieces can be wired if the cable type is between AWG16 and AWG22 (between 1.3 mm2 and 0.36 mm2).
