Wiring and Safety Guidelines

Use publication NFPA 70E, Electrical Safety Requirements for Employee Workplaces, IEC
60364 Electrical Installations in Buildings, or other applicable wiring safety requirements for
the country of installation when wiring the devices. In addition to the NFPA guidelines:
• connect the device and other similar electronic equipment to its own branch circuit.
• protect the input power by a fuse or circuit breaker rated at no more than 15 A.
• route incoming power to the device by a separate path from the communication lines.
• cross power and communication lines at right angles if they must cross.
Communication lines can be installed in the same conduit as low-level
DC I/O lines (less than 10V).
• shield and ground cables appropriately to avoid electromagnetic interference (EMI).
Grounding minimizes noise from EMI and is a safety measure in electrical
installations.
For more information on grounding recommendations, refer to the National Electrical Code
published by the National Fire Protection Association.
For more information on terminal wiring and grounding applications, refer to publication
2711P-TD001. You can find this publication in the Literature Library at
