The RA-C1-7... flexible busbar is keyed in order to prevent it from being con-
nected the wrong way around. More specifically, one of the busbar edges
has a tapered shape. The cable connector in all system components (ribbon
cable outgoers) will be shaped accordingly. In other words, the flexible bus-
bar needs to be inserted in such a way that the tapered side will be on the
opposite side of the hinge of the opened cable connector.

L+ and M are not used on Rapid Link modules RAMO5 and
RASP5.
￫
RAMO5 and RASP5 must always be connected to the power
bus with five conductors: L1, L2, L3, N, PE.
Unwind the flexible busbar, cut it to length, and route it as necessary.
There is an inscription on one side of the busbar that is designed to work as a
keying guide. A metric marker on the jacket aids with cutting to length.
ATTENTION
The flexible busbar is not suitable for drawing in and must not
be used as trailing cable!
Where the flexible busbar is not laid within cable ducts, secure it to the
ground with cable binders or cable clamps.
￫
In areas in which mechanical damage is likely to occur, we rec-
ommend laying the busbar in cable ducting for protection.
