5. WIRING
䊏 Flameproof metal conduit wiring
•A seal fitting must be installed near the terminal
box connection port for a sealed construction.
• Apply a nonhardening sealant to the threads of the
terminal box connection port, flexible metal conduit
and seal fitting for waterproofing.

5.6 Grounding
Grounding should satisfy JIS Class D requirements
(with ground resistance of 100⍀ or less). Grounding
work is required for withstand voltage explosionproof
type units and intrinsic safe explosionproof type
transmitters.
For a transmitter with built-in arrester, grounding
should satisfy JIS Class C requirements (with
ground resistance of 10⍀ or less).
Grounding terminals are located both inside and
outside the terminal board.
Use 600V vinyl insulation wires for the grounding
conductor.
