Ì
The earth bond limit depends signlificantly on the supply cord length and its PE
wire cross-section area.
Ì
SHORT should be set for appliances with a cord not longer than 5 m.
Ì
MEDIUM can be used when the appliance supply cord is longer than 5 m or the
cord wire has a small cross-section area.
Ì
LONG can be used if the appliance has a very long supply cord (for instance
vaccum cleaners).
Ì
The power means the maximum power that can be delivered in combination with
the set fuse. Some users are more familiar with the nominal power than the fuse
rating.
