Installation Guidelines
3-10
Grounding strips
If there are no large-area metal-to-metal connections, you must
connect inactive metal parts such as cabinet doors and supports
with grounding strips. These should be short and have a large surface.
Cabinet members
The cabinet members should have a large-area connection to the
cabinet housing (metal-to-metal connection).
Mounting bracket for subrack
There must be a large-area metal-to-metal connection between
cabinet member and mounting bracket.
Signal lines
With shielded signal lines, the shield must be secured to the
protective conductor bar or an additionally fitted shield bar using
large-area cable clamps.
Cable clamp
The cable clamp must enclose and make contact with the shield braid
over a large area.
Shield bar
This bar must have a large-area connection to the cabinet members
(metal-to-metal connection). It serves for grounding the cable shields.
Protective conductor bar
The protective conductor bar must have a large-area connection to
the cabinet members (metal-to-metal connection). The protective
conductor bar must be connected to the protective conductor system
via an external conductor (at least 10 mm
providing a reliable path to ground for fault currents and interference
currents.
Conductor to the protective conductor system (ground point)
The conductor must have a large-area connection to the protective
conductor system (ground point).
