50 Operating Instructions, 09/2019, A5E34382853K
Power connections are not assigned a multiple number of times.
For reasons of safety, multiple use of the power connections is not permitted. This means
that it is not permissible to place several cable lugs on top of each other and screw them
together. If it is necessary to loop through the power connections (for example, when
connecting several SINAMICS DCP devices in parallel), you must use suitable distribution
terminals, which you mount in the cabinet.
