Wiring Precautions; Startup And Maintenance Precautions - Mitsubishi FX3U-232-BD User Manual

2. WIRING PRECAUTIONS

• Make sure to cut off all phases of the power supply externally before attempting installation or wiring work.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock or damage to the product.
• Make sure to attach the terminal cover, offered as an accessory, before turning on the power or initiating operation
after installation or wiring work.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock.
• Make sure to observe the following precautions in order to prevent any damage to the machinery or accidents due
to abnormal data written to the PLC under the influence of noise:
1) Do not bundle the main circuit line together with or lay it close to the main circuit, high-voltage line or load line.
Otherwise, noise disturbance and/or surge induction are likely to take place. As a guideline, lay the control line
at least 100mm (3.94") or more away from the main circuit or high-voltage line.
2) Ground the shield wire or shield of the shielded cable at one point on the PLC. However, do not use grounding
with heavy electrical systems.
• Make sure to properly wire the FX
precautions.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock, a short-circuit, wire breakage, or damage to the product.
- The disposal size of the cable end should follow the dimensions described in this manual.
- Tightening torque should follow the specifications in this manual.
• Make sure to properly wire to the European terminal board in accordance with the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock, a short-circuit, wire breakage, or damage to the product.
- The disposal size of the cable end should follow the dimensions described in this manual.
- Tightening torque should be follow the specifications in this manual.
- Twist the end of strand wire and make sure that there are no loose wires.
- Do not solder-plate the electric wire ends.
- Do not connect more than the specified number of wires or electric wires of unspecified size.
- Affix the electric wires so that neither the terminal block nor the connected parts are directly stressed.

3. STARTUP AND MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS

• Do not touch any terminal while the PLC's power is on.
Doing so may cause electric shock or malfunctions.
• Before cleaning or retightening terminals, cut off all phases of the power supply externally.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock.
• Before modifying or disrupting the program in operation or running the PLC, carefully read through this manual
and the associated manuals and ensure the safety of the operation.
An operation error may damage the machinery or cause accidents.
• Do not change the program in the PLC from two or more peripheral equipment devices at the same time.
(i.e. from a programming tool and a GOT)
Doing so may cause destruction or malfunction of the PLC program.
• Do not disassemble or modify the PLC.
Doing so may cause fire, equipment failures, or malfunctions.
For repair, contact your local Mitsubishi Electric distributor.
• Turn off the power to the PLC before connecting or disconnecting any extension cable.
Failure to do so may cause equipment failures or malfunctions.
• Turn of the power to the PLC before attaching or detaching the peripheral devices, expansion boards, special
adapters, and expansion memory cassette.
Failure to do so may cause equipment failures or malfunctions.
