Insulation of LPIT Digital Input (via Module IO240)
Insulation (All Inputs)
Configuration Each phase group (current, voltage, and temperature) is insulated from
each other, to PE and to the operator according to the requirements of the
IEC 61869-1 (AC 3 kV, 50 Hz, 1 min) and the IEC 60255-27 for a rated
voltage of 300 V despite the low-level signal voltages.
All channels are protected with differential-mode and common-mode
voltage-limiting devices.
Test levels (type test) AC 3250 V, 50 Hz, 1 min
