5.3.3 Wiring of the analog module
Tasks
The wiring of the analog module consists of the following tasks:
● Connecting the power supply (red cable)
● Connecting the 2-wire current transducer (green cables)
● Terminating unused channels with a resistor
● Connecting the 4-wire current transducer (green cables)
● Connecting the 4-wire current transducer (green cables)
● Connecting to ground and short-circuiting the other unused channels (blue wires)
