INSTALLATION 

 

WARNING! 

This equipment shall be installed in a closed cabinet with no access to live parts.  
Only the top enclosure of the equipment (where the label is affixed) is allowed 
to be accessed by the operator. 

Since the module is connected to mains/line voltage, it must be installed by 
a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical codes. 

Turn off power (main circuit breaker) before installation. 

 

Terminal connections 

 

Each module has a wiring diagram on the front which can help the installer when 
connecting the modules at installation sites. See figure 2. 

The terminal connections of the FNIP-8x16A are listed in Table 1.
