Power plugs and power outlet sockets
A power plug must be installed on the power input cable so that
you can connect LC Plus panels to AC mains power. Install a
grounding-type (earthed) industrial 3-prong type B plug (see
Figure 10) that complies with IEC 60309 or a comparable national
standard and is rated 16 A minimum, and use corresponding
power outlet sockets. Follow the plug and socket manufacturer’s
instructions and all locally applicable laws and electrical safety
codes.
When installing a power plug in a single-phase system:
• Connect the green/yellow ground (earth) conductor to the
terminal marked
or
.
• Connect the brown live conductor to the terminal marked
L
.
• Connect the blue neutral conductor to the remaining terminal.
When installing a power plug in a 2-phase system:
• Connect the green ground (earth) conductor to the terminal marked
or
.
• Connect the black phase 1 conductor to the terminal marked
