Connecting the P-616 to the Protective Earth Conductor
INFORMATION
Pay attention to the applicable standards for connecting the protective earth conductor.
INFORMATION
If there is any vibration in your application, secure the screw connection for the protective
earth conductor in a suitable manner (e.g., with liquid adhesive) to prevent it from

The P-616 has an M4 hole for attaching the protective earth conductor. This hole is marked
with the symbol for the protective earth conductor (see "Dimensions" (p. 42)).
