Page 17: Connection Instructions
5�2�2 Connection instructions AC Connector NOTE Use a copper wire of size 20 ... 14 mm external diameter (section 4 ... ). Use only rigid or flexible conductors. 1. Remove the external isolation of the cable to free the N (Neutral) and L (Line) wires for a length Y of 36 mm, and to free the PE (Protective Earth) wire for a length Y of 40 mm. - Page 18 5. Insert the connector in the enclosure and pull the cable backwards until the tabs on the sides click in position. 6. Tighten the cable gland with a 4 Nm torque. 7. Insert the connector in the counterpart located at the bottom of the inverter pushing it until the side tab clicks and locks it in position.
