The master and the two moving rail sections on the switch are also connected using the
8 meter PLB connection cable, for example. The signal is routed via a PLB TC module in this
case. This TC module is used to attenuate the powerline signal. This prevents a closed loop
from forming via the two connection cables when a slider bridges the cut. We recommend
installing the TC module directly at the rail in a rail terminal box. If this is not possible for
mechanical reasons, the powerline connection cable can also be connected using a HAN®
connector (see Selection table (Page 33)). In this case, the TC module must be installed in
the control cabinet of the master.
Make sure that the 8 meter PLB connection cable shield is applied EMC-compliant to both
ends.
