Installation Guidelines
Operating a programmable controller with field devices on a centrally grounded supply
In plants with their own transformers or generators, the PLC is connected to the central grounding
point. A removable connection must be provided for measuring ground faults.
Installation of the PLC must be such that there is insulation between the cabinet potential and the
protective conductor potential. In order to maintain the insulation, all connected devices must be
grounded capacitively or they must be nongrounded. For this reason, programmers must be
supplied only over an isolating transformer.
