60079-0.
Verify that customer-supplied enclosures meet these requirements.
3.1.2 Location requirements
The installation location should:
–
Allow access to the enclosure, XIO, power sources, cables and connections
–
Be at a distance that does not exceed the maximum or recommended field wiring lengths for
connections to peripherals or external equipment. Field wiring requirements depend on the type of
connection. See section 3.1.4.
3.1.3 Mounting requirements
Mounting surfaces or walls require enough strength to support the hanging weight of the enclosure, and

support 16 - 24 AWG. Select the wire gauge according to the voltage and current requirements of the
circuitry. The gauge differs for each application.
–
Follow local electrical codes to select the appropriate wire gauge and type based on the load current,
voltage, signal type, and indoor or outdoor environment.
NOTICE – Equipment damage . Field installation cable and conductors must be rated greater than
70 °C (158 °F) when installed in an ambient temperature of 60 °C (140 °F).
