4.4 Communication and Synchronization wiring
Notes:
(1) – Use shielded twisted pair for Synchronization loop and for RS485 communication.
(2) – For communication cabling length of cables should not exceed 200m.
(3) - For Synchronization cabling length of cables should not exceed 20m.
(4) - Synchronized mode cannot be implemented if one current analogue input is connected
to several TPS units in series.
4.5 Wiring Notes
WARNINGS!
When mains voltage is connected to the TPS, even if control voltage is
disconnected, full voltage may appear on the TPS load terminals.
Therefore, for isolation purposes, it is necessary to connect an isolating device
before the TPS.
Power factor correction capacitors must not be installed on TPS load side.
When required, install capacitors on TPS line side.
