Generally, all the screws included in delivered mounting kits are of Torx type and a torque
screwdriver of the same type is needed (Tx10, Tx15, Tx20, Tx25 and Tx30).
Use only the screws included in the mounting kit when mounting the plates and the
angles on the IED. Screws with wrong dimension may damage the PCBs inside the
IED.

The mechanical and electrical environmental conditions at the installation site must be within the
limits described in the technical manual and IEC60255-1, normal environment.
•
Avoid installation in dusty, damp places and where combustible materials are present near the
IED
•
Check that sufficient space is available.
Sufficient space is needed at the front and rear of the IED to allow access to wires and optical
fibers and to enable maintenance and future modifications.
•
Ensure convection cooling around the case to minimize the heating effect within the IED.
