    These covers are not included in the scope of delivery. They can be ordered separately, see chapter Spare Part List, page 213 of the Device Manual for further information. If these restrictions are not observed, REGATRON AG cannot be made liable for any consequential harm. Categorization of the Hazard Areas The assessment of the effects of hazards from low-voltage systems with a flow of energy for supply and possibly regeneration is divided into various areas, which are described in the following.
  • Page 7: Electric Shock

    • Use wiring material suitable and stipulated for your application with the related insulation class. • Monitor your system actively or passively using appropriate sensors or by monitoring parameters. REGATRON G5 Device Family - V03.00 7 / 39...
  • Page 8: Arcing And Sparking On Opening Contacts

    The use of normal mains contactors as isolators in DC circuits is not recommended! Use DC contactors instead. If in doubt, contact their manufacturer. Bear in mind that the protective devices of the REGATRON low-voltage system cannot detect an arc as a fault condition, as this may be desired as a function.
  • Page 9: Mains Connection Area

    Here a modern make of residual current circuit breaker is to be used that will tolerate such asymmetries during the switch-on process. REGATRON recommends using an all- current sensitive RCD circuit breaker type B or B+.

    If you want to use a residual current device, please consider the varying requirements for protection against fire and the protection of individuals. REGATRON recommends the usage of a residual current device sensitive to AC and DC leakage currents. If such a device is to be installed, a Type B or Type B+ must be chosen in order to avoid false tripping or lack of appropriate protection.
