If you install an S7-300 with ungrounded reference potential, any interference
currents that occur are dissipated via an RC system to the ground conductor/local
ground integrated into the CPU.

An S7-300 with a CPU 31xC cannot be configured ungrounded.

In extended systems, the S7-300 may require configuration with grounded
reference potential due to ground-fault monitoring. This is the case, for example, in
chemical industry and power stations.

If you implement an ungrounded reference potential in your CPU: Use a
screwdriver with 3.5 mm blade width and push the grounding slide contact forwards
in the direction of the arrow until it snaps into place.
