Safety Switch
A safety switch must be installed in the immediate vicinity of a controller
installation to allow for immediate total power supply disconnection to the
equipment, should the need arise. However, the prime function of the safety switch
is to provide a means of isolating the power supply completely during maintenance.
The safety switch must be installed in a location where it is both easily accessible
and clearly visible, i.e., outside any enclosure or cabinet.
Protective Ground
Always install a protective ground connection on equipment connected to a
230 V AC supply.
Fusing the External Mains Supply Cable
The recommended fuse rating for the external mains supply of a standard AC 800M
Controller configuration, housed within a floor or wall-mounted cabinet, is given in
Table 5 on page 47.
Should the configuration be other than that stated, instructions for calculating
current consumptions can be found in the relevant I/O manual. For the
AC 800M Controller, see
Appendix B, Power Consumption .
Uninterruptable Power Supply
The SD82x series of power supply units comfortably handle the short power
interruptions (<20 ms) that y occur normally within an industrial environment.
Despite this, it is sometimes necessary to protect certain applications against brief
voltage failures by the installation of an Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS)
device.
