6.9.1 Further information 6.9.2 Preparing the cable entry and the cables
Determining the cable length
1. Determine the required length of a cable
between the point of entry and the connection
point inside the cabinet.
2. Cut the cable to the required length before con-
nection.
Preparing cables for 6-hole entry plates
Prepare the cable termination as illustrated in
6-5: B.
See mechanical drawings for information
on:
• Project-specific cable entry
• Distance between the point of cable
entry and the termination bars
• Busbar and fastening hole dimensions
• Busbar designations
See wiring diagrams for information on:
• Conventions for cross-references and
device identification
