Low Voltage Directive Requirements

The Low Voltage Directive requires that the equipment operating with power supply ranging from 50 V AC to 1000 V AC or 75
V DC to 1500 V DC has enough safety.
This section explains the precautions for the installation and wiring of the GOT to comply with the Low Voltage Directive.
The data described herein are produced with our best, based on the regulation requirements and standards obtained by
Mitsubishi Electric. However, the data do not guarantee that the equipment produced according to the data comply with the
above directive.
The manufacturer of the equipment must determine the method to comply with the Low Voltage Directive and conformance to
the directive.

Category II
Category I
The installation category indicates the withstand surge voltage generated by lightning strike. Installation category I indicates
the lowest withstand level, and installation category IV indicates the highest withstand level.
Installation category II indicates a power supply whose voltage has been reduced by two or more levels of isolation
transformers from the public power distribution.

Control panel

The GOT is an open type device (designed to be integrated in equipment).
Make sure to install the GOT in a control panel.
Electric shock protection
