Page 30
INSTALLATION Special connection: • Single phase connection (1 1N, 230 V~ / 50 Hz): ▷ The voltage between the phase and the neutral is 230 V~. Fit a connecting bridge between connecting points 1-2 and 4-5. The group must have a fuse of at least 32 A. The core diameter of the connecting should be at least 6 mm The bridges on the connecting block can be used to create the required connections, as indicated in these illustrations.
