Supplying Power to Modules
Power Supply Modules and Load Current Power Supplies
The modules of the S7-400 system are supplied with all the required operating
voltages by a power supply module, via the backplane bus of the rack. Which
power supply module you use in a rack depends on your system requirements (line
voltage, current consumption of the modules used).
You must provide load voltages and currents via external load current power
supplies.
The following figure shows how the individual modules of the S7-400 are supplied
with current and voltage.
