All of the following requirements are complied with:
 The electrical wires are voltage-free.
 The cables used are permitted for the temperature range of the application case.
Table 1: General requirements for connecting electrical wires
All of the following requirements are complied with:
 The voltage connected complies with the requirements for a safety extra-low voltage 
(SELV) as per IEC/EN 60950-1.
 The connected voltage is limited by a current limitation device or a fuse.
Observe the electrical threshold values for the signal contact. 
See “General technical data” on page 53.

Device variant Requirements
All variants All of the following requirements are complied with:
 The supply voltage corresponds to the voltage specified on the type 
plate of the device.
 The power supply conforms to overvoltage category I or II.
 The power supply has an easily accessible disconnecting device 
(e.g., a switch or a plug). This disconnecting device is clearly 
identified. So in the case of an emergency, it is clear which 
disconnecting device belongs to which power supply cable.
 The cross-section of the ground conductor is the same size as or 
bigger than the cross-section of the power supply cables.
 Relevant for North America:
The power cords are suitable for ambient air temperatures of at least 
167 °F (75 °C). The power cord wires are made of copper.
Only for device 
variants featuring 
supply voltage with 
the characteristic 
value CC:
The wire diameter of the power supply cable is at least 1 mm² (North 
America: AWG16) on the supply voltage input.
The following requirements are alternatively complied with:
Alternative 1 The power supply complies with the requirements 
for a limited power source (LPS) as per EN 60950-1.
Alternative 2 Relevant for North America:
The  power supply complies with the requirements 
as per NEC Class 2
Alternative 3 All of the following requirements are complied with:
 The powersupply complies with the 
requirements for a safety extra-low voltage 
(SELV) as per IEC/EN 60950-1.
 A fuse suitable for DC voltage is located in the 
plus conductor of the power supply. 
The minus conductor is on ground potential. 
Otherwise, a fuse is also located in the minus 
conductor.
Regarding the properties of this fuse: 
See “General technical data” on page 53.
