3.7.3 Earthing the NT units
Considerations
NT casing must be connected to the main earth with a cable 16 mm
2
minimal cross-section whose
length must not exceed 2.40 m. The grounding terminal is on the right of the NT unit (connections
side) and is in the form of a tapped hole (see Figure 15 – Earthing the (NCAxxx) NT unit).
The earth connection should be made as directly as possible between the unit and the general
earthing system of the side (bar, rod, plate, etc.).
The NCAxxx NT units are grounded through the 85 – 264Va main connector; for the NGAxxx
units, only one earthing point is necessary, after the earthing of all the NT units.
Steps
1. Crimp a lug (ref.: 16-6 CT) on to the earthing cable (16 mm
2
cross-section).
2. Screw the cable lug into the terminal designed for this purpose. Use an M6 screw.
