Wire and Safety Guidelines
Use Electrical Safety Requirements for Employee Workplaces,
publication NFPA 70E, when you wire the InView communication
module. Also, consider these guidelines.
• Route communication cables to terminal by a separate path from
incoming power
• Where power and communication lines must cross, they should
cross at right angles. Communication lines can be installed in the
same conduit as low level DC I/O lines (less than 10 volts)
• Grounding minimizes noise from Electromagnetic Interference
(EMI) and is a safety measure in electrical installations
• Use the National Electric Code published by the National Fire
Protection Association as a source for grounding
IMPORTANT
Do not run signal wiring and power wiring
in the same conduit.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Do not connect or disconnect equipment unless
power has been switched off and area is known to
be non-hazardous.
