4.6.6 Terminals for external conductors
Pay attention to EN 60079-14 (Explosive atmospheres – Part 14: Electrical installations design,
selection and erection) when connecting the external conductors to the terminals in a potentially
explosive atmosphere.
Lay conductors according to the terminal assignment. Equipotential bonding is not required
because the power supply is galvanically isolated.
