■ Flameproof metal conduit wiring
• A seal fitting must be installed near the terminal
box connection port for a sealed construction.
• Apply a nonhardening sealant to the threads of
the terminal box connection port, flexible metal

5.6 Grounding
Grounding is always required for the proper
operation of transmitters. Follow the domestic
electrical requirements as regulated in each
country. For a transmitter with built-in lightning
protector, grounding should satisfy ground
resistance of 10Ω or less.
Ground terminals are located on the inside and
outside of the terminal box. Either of these terminals
may be used.
WARNING
For TIIS flameproof type and intrinsically safe,
grounding should satisfy Class D requirements
(grounding resistance, 100Ω or less).
