Product Usage Instructions

Connecting Channel Outputs

The load output terminals for live and neutral per channel are located at the top right of the cabinet. To connect the channel outputs, follow these steps:

  1. Ensure the power to the cabinet is turned off.
  2. Strip the insulation from the end of the cable that you will be using.
  3. Insert the exposed end of the cable into the appropriate double stacked load output terminal for the corresponding channel.
  4. Tighten the terminal screws to secure the cable in place.
  5. Repeat steps 2-4 for each channel you wish to connect.

Channel Phases

The channels are divided into three phases: Phase 1, Phase 2, and Phase 3. Each phase corresponds to specific channels as indicated by the wiring color codes. To understand the phase allocation, refer to the following:

  • Phase 1 (brown*): Channels 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22
  • Phase 2 (black*): Channels 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, 23
  • Phase 3 (grey*): Channels 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24

*Based on IEC Standard wiring color codes.

Top Cable Entries

The cabinet has two flange top cable entries with relief stamps.
To utilize the top cable entries, follow these steps:

  1. Identify the appropriate top cable entry based on your cable size and requirements.
  2. Remove any protective covers or caps from the selected cable entry.
  3. Insert the cable through the flange and relief stamp.
  4. Secure the cable in place using appropriate cable clamps or fasteners.
