2.2 Instructions on cabling
Note: To prevent water ingress, ensure the following:
l
Avoid assembly in rain and prevent soaking in the rain through appropriate means
l
Maintain the minimum diameter for cables
l
Always place the plastic safety washer into the unused screwed cable gland correctly
In preparation for the detector assembly, comply with local cable installation regulations and applicable
norms. Standard minimum distances must be maintained particularly in the vicinity of electric high-power
lines, because line signals may get affected otherwise and may lead to inaccurate measurements or even
false alarms.
2.3 Lightning and overvoltage protection
WARNING:
To protect detectors from permanent damage due to a direct lightning strike when mounting on a
pole, detectors (or other devices such as camera or IR lighting) must never be mounted directly
at the top of the pole, instead a custom-calculated safe distance must be maintained above the
detector.
WARNING:
If mounting is not possible due to circumstances on the ground (pole too short in height, for
example), extensive lightning protection measures, such as installing air terminal rods as
shown above, must be taken
The following norms must also be observed in this regard:
