5. Wiring

Cautions on wiring

Make sure to shut down the power supplies of all phases on the outside before starting installation 
or wiring.
If the power supplies are not shut down, you may receive an electrical shock or the unit may be 
damaged.

As to loads, such as a connector for normal rotation and a connector for reverse rotation, 
which are dangerous when turning on at the same time, make sure to interlock them outside 
the PLC in addition to interlocking of them in a program in the PLC.

Correctly connect the power cable of the FX

2N

-2LC and the PLC as described in this manual.

If the AC power supply is connected to a DC I/O terminal or DC power terminal, the PLC may 
be damaged.

Perform Class D grounding with an electric wire of 2 mm

2

 or more to the grounding terminal in the 

FX

2N

-2LC and the PLC. However, never perform common grounding with a strong power system.

6. Specifications

6.1 General specifications

Other General specifications are equivalent to those for the PLC main unit. Refer to the manual of the PLC
