ABB AC500 PLC Hardware Manual page 1197

Maintain spacing from:
● enclosure walls
● wireways
● adjacent equipment
Allow a minimum of 20 mm clearance on all sides. This provides ventilation and electrical isola-
tion.
It is recommended to mount the modules on an earthed mounting plate, or an earthed DIN rail,
independent of the mounting location.
