National Instruments cFP-PG-522, FP-PG-522 Specifications

following symbol stamped beside it: . Connect the

backplane PE ground terminal to the system safety ground

using 14AWG (1.6 mm) wire with a ring lug. Use the 5/16 in.

panhead screw shipped with the backplane to secure the ring

lug to the backplane PE ground terminal.

• As with any hazardous voltage wiring, make sure that all

wiring and connections meet applicable electrical codes and

commonsense practices. Mount terminal bases and backplanes

in an area, position, or cabinet that prevents accidental or

unauthorized access to wiring that carries hazardous voltages.

• Operate the [c]FP-PG-522 only at or below Pollution

Degree2. Pollution Degree 2 means that only nonconductive

pollution occurs in most cases. Occasionally, however, a

temporary conductivity caused by condensation must be

expected.

• Refer to the FieldPoint product label for regulatory

certification under hazardous location standards. If the

FieldPoint product is not certified for operation in hazardous

locations, do not operate it in an explosive atmosphere or

where there may be flammable gases or fumes.
