7. Troubleshooting

Before carrying out maintenance or service work in the explosion hazard 
area, make sure that there is no potentially explosive atmosphere in the 
working zone.

Warning!

Maintenance and repair work must be carried out only by specially 
qualified personnel

.

8. Technical specifications

8.1 Terrabox TCB030

Safety-related parameters

Error/Symptom

Remedy

Terra-Control unit enabled, 
although the ground clamp 
has not been clamped to a 
conductive object.

Dirt settled on ground clamp: Clean ground 
clamp with solvent (cleaning gasoline). 
Do not immerse the plug of the coupling in 
solvent.

Unit enabled after attaching 
the clamp to a conductive 
and grounded object, 
although the connections to 
terminals Z2 and/or PAL are 
disrupted.

No error!
The unit identifies the ground connection of 
the object and enables.

Unit fails to enable, cable 
ripped from the plug or from 
the clamp.

Shorten cable and reconnect 
(see Electrical Connections)

Cable break on the rewind 
reel.

Shorten cable and reconnect 
(see Electrical Connections).
