4.1 DC LOW VOLTAGE CABLE INSERTION
The Cable Entry Plate and the AS-I Cable Compression Connectors have protection
capability of IP65.
4.1.1 Cable Entry Plate
Follow these instructions to correctly insert the cables:
1) Determine the number and size of the cables coming into and leaving the PWR-480B.
2) Locate the correct entry hole sizes and positions relative to these cables.
3) Press the cable end through the proper hole so that the gland material seals around it.
The Cable Entry Plate has 14 cable entry points with the following specifications:

4.1.2 AS-I Cable Compression Connectors
Prepare the AS-I cable by stripping the wires and inserting first the compression connector
nut, then the AS-I cable sealing grommet.
Pass the AS-I cable through the compression connector and make sure there is enough
length to easily reach the 24 Vdc Terminal Block.
Seat the AS-I cable sealing grommet into the compression connector and tighten the
compression connector nut,
