5.1.10 Protective grounding
The protective ground is connected via the protective conductor (PE) at
the cabinets and components. For S7-400, the potential bonding
conductor/cable does not have a protective conductor function.
For S7-400, it is required for reliable operation and noise suppression.
The protective conductor must be routed in accordance with DIN VDE
0100 and DIN VDE 0160.
For subracks, the protective conductor cross-section must be
10 mm
2
.
For additional information refer to Installation Manual „S7-400 and
M7-400 Programmable Controllers Hardware and Installation“.
5.1.11 Cabinet
If the S7-400 components are installed in an electrical cabinet, then
this must be implemented as follows:
Each cabinet must have a ground/potential bonding rail, which is
connected to the cabinet frame at both ends.
All S7-400 subracks must be connected to the grounding/potential
bonding rail through a 10 mm
2
cable which should be as short as
possible. The connection via the PE connection of the power supply is
not sufficient.
