Installing the Earth Rail
An earth rail provides a termination point for shield and spare wires. It also
provides a grounding location for transducers if local wiring codes require an
earth ground. Reference local wiring codes for any wiring restrictions.
The 3500 Galvanic Isolator Interface system does not require a high integrity
earth and the transducers can be left floating or be earthed at any one point.
Refer to the 3500 Field Wiring Package (130432-01). Do not wire transducer
common to earth. A "floating" system is recommended, except for the
Aeroderivative Interface Module (part number 86517) which requires a grounded
system for noise immunity.
