Caution:
Digital input circuits should be protected by a high rupture capacity NIT or TIA fuse with
maximum rating of 16 A. for safety reasons, current transformer circuits must never be
fused. Other circuits should be appropriately fused to protect the wire used.
Caution:
CTs must NOT be fused since open circuiting them may produce lethal hazardous
voltages
4.5 EQUIPMENT CONNECTIONS
Warning:
Terminals exposed during installation, commissioning and maintenance may present a
hazardous voltage unless the equipment is electrically isolated.
Caution:
Tighten M4 clamping screws of heavy duty terminal block connectors to a nominal
torque of 1.3 Nm.
Tighten captive screws of terminal blocks to 0.5 Nm minimum and 0.6 Nm maximum.
Caution:
Always use insulated crimp terminations for voltage and current connections.
Caution:
Always use the correct crimp terminal and tool according to the wire size.
Caution:
Watchdog (self-monitoring) contacts are provided to indicate the health of the device
on some products. We strongly recommend that you hard wire these contacts into the
substation's automation system, for alarm purposes.
4.6 PROTECTION CLASS 1 EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS
Caution:
Earth the equipment with the supplied PCT (Protective Conductor Terminal).
Caution:
Do not remove the PCT.
Caution:
The PCT is sometimes used to terminate cable screens. Always check the PCT’s integrity
after adding or removing such earth connections.
