Electric shock due to high leakage currents caused by an interrupted external protective
conductor
The drive components conduct a high leakage current via the protective conductor.
Touching conductive parts when the protective conductor is interrupted can result in death
or serious injury.
• Ensure that the external protective conductor satisfies at least one of the following
Electric shock due to incorrectly laid brake cables
If brake cables are laid without safe electrical separation, the insulation can fail with an
electric shock.
• Close the holding brake with the specified MOTION-CONNECT cable.
• Only use third-party cables with safe electrically separated brake cores or lay the brake
Electric shock in the event of voltage flashovers at the temperature sensor
Voltage flashovers to the signal electronics can occur in motors without safe electrical
separation of the temperature sensors.
• Only use temperature sensors that fully comply with the specifications of the safety
• If safe electrical separation cannot be guaranteed (e.g. for linear motors or third-party
Fire through overheating due to insufficient ventilation clearances
Inadequate ventilation clearances can cause overheating with a risk for personnel through
smoke development and fire. This can also result in more downtimes and Line Modules
may have a reduced service life.
• It is absolutely essential that you maintain ventilation clearances according to the table

– It has been laid so that it is protected against mechanical damage.
– If it is a single cable, it has a cross-section of at least 10 mm² Cu.
– If it is a conductor of a multi-conductor cable, it has a cross-section of at least 2.5
mm² Cu.
– It has a second protective conductor in parallel with the same cross-section.
– It complies with the local regulations for equipment with increased leakage current.
Cables laid within control cabinets or closed machine housings are considered to be
