Wiring Requirements
WARNING
Turn the power off before disconnecting modules or wires. The
correct power supply voltage is listed on the product label. Check
the voltage of your power source to make sure that you are using
the correct voltage. Do NOT use a voltage greater than what is
specified on the product label.
These devices must be supplied by a SELV source as defined in
the Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC and 2004/108/EC.
ATTENTION
Safety First!
Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or
wiring your MOXA switch.
This device has UL508 approval. Use copper conductors only,
60/75°C, Tighten To 4.5 pound-inches
ATTENTION
Safety First!
Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and
common wire. Observe all electrical codes dictating the
maximum current allowable for each wire size. If the current goes
above the maximum ratings, the wiring could overheat, causing
serious damage to your equipment.
You should also heed the following guidelines:
y
Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power wiring
and device wiring paths must cross, make sure the wires are perpendicular
at the intersection point. NOTE: Do not run signal or communications
wiring and power wiring in the same wire conduit. To avoid interference,
wires with different signal characteristics should be routed separately.
y
You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to determine
which wires should be kept separate. The rule of thumb is that wiring that
shares similar electrical characteristics can be bundled together.
y
Keep input wiring and output wiring separated.
y
It is strongly advised that you label wiring to all devices in the system when
necessary.
Grounding the EDS-305-M12
Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection from the
ground screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices.
