The potential distribution module EP-700F provides 16 connections for the functional earth.
Potential distribution modules are passive modules without fieldbus communication,
therefore they are not considered during configuration.
Note: A maximum of three passive modules (power-feed module, potential distribution module, and
empty slot module) may be installed in succession, however the next module to be installed must be
an active module.
