Selecting Protective Devices
This section describes how to select protective devices (e.g., breakers and fuses) to protect against
short circuits and overcurrents in external circuits.
Overcurrent is the current that flows when an excessive load is connected and one of the following
ratings is exceeded.
Unit Item for rating Rated value
CPU Unit NX Unit power supply capacity 10 W max.
Current capacity of power supply

*1. Even if the model of the Additional I/O Power Supply Unit you use allows the maximum I/O power supply current or current
capacity of the I/O power supply terminals which is greater than 4 A, the I/O power must be supplied at 4 A or less be-
cause of the restriction on the CPU Rack system configuration.
The built-in I/O overcurrent refers to a current that flows when the maximum switching capacity of the
built-in output is exceeded.
Precautions for Safe Use
Use the I/O power supply current for the CPU Rack of the NX1P2 CPU Unit at 4 A or less. Us-
ing the currents that are outside of the specifications may cause failure or damage.
Selecting Protective Devices
Consider the following items when you select protective devices.
• Protective device specifications (breaking/fusing, detection characteristics, steady current value,
etc.)
•
Inrush current when power is turned ON
• Inrush current when connected external devices turn ON and OFF*1
*1. Refer to 4-3-5 Restrictions on Inrush Current for ON/OFF Operation on page
4-21 for information on the in-
rush current when connected external devices are turned ON and OFF.
For the breaking/fusing time, use protective devices that meet the conditions in the following table.
