▪ The cables used must be flame-resistant in accordance with
IEC60332-1-2 or UL2556VW-1.
▪ If both low voltage and extra-low voltage are connected in the device, it
must be ensured that the circuits for extra-low voltage and for low voltage
in the connection area and in the cable are separated from each other
with double insulation.

can reach temper-
atures of >90°C during regeneration. When laying the cables,
ensure that they do not touch the glass cylinder.
Consider the position of the connections when preparing the cable.
Ensure that the length of the protective conductor (terminal
1) is at least 50mm longer than the supply voltage conductors
(terminals 2 and 3).
