Warning!
Dangerous atmospheres and plant damages due to communication loss!
Connecting signal leads of the spur lines to the earth potential or the cable shield during plant
operation can cause communication loss with the segment. This can lead to serious plant dam-
ages or dangerous atmospheres.
Do not connect any signal leads of spur lines to earth potential or cable shield. After mainte-
nance activities, ensure that all the wirings have been reattached properly.
