Electrical connections
All contact connectors can be found within the switch housing. The earth conductor for grounding the housing
can be found on the bearing plate. The electrical connections for contact connectors and earth conductors occur
via screw connections. The bores for cable entry points are closed with blind plugs for delivery of the switch.
The bores can be found in the gearbox housing. Depending on the cable type used, the corresponding blind
plugs are replaced through cable entry points by the customer. The cable ends reach the contacts via the cable
entry point on the connecting terminals. Each contact is provided with protection against accidental contact.
NOTE
For contact 51, the following applies:
The protection against accidental contact must be removed for wiring.
