6.4.7 Mount PE connectors
Note the following for the PE connector:
The PE connector must not act as an anchor point.

Avoid needing too many cuts on the data rail for a connection point.

Install a PE connector every 25 m to ground the support structure (substructure).

There are three variants for mounting onto the support structure (substructure):
1.) Mount the PE connector at the connection point
→ Drill an elongated hole (Ø 21 mm) for the PE bolt into the support structure (substructure), through which the spacer can be
guided (see Fig. 98 and Fig. 99). The dimensions of the elongated hole depend on the air gap set in the expansion unit (see
Section 6.4.4.2). In addition, the spacer must be able to move freely in the elongated hole.
→ Mount the PE connector in the same way as a normal connector (see Section 6.4)
→ Connect each PE connector to a terminal box. If the PE cable is at the rear of the support structure (substructure), it must be
led back through (e.g. through a hole in the support structure) in such a way that it is possible to connect it to the terminal box.
