Electrical Installation

Cabling the Axis

Step

Action

1

Connect the motor.

For details about connecting the motor, refer to the corresponding motor manual.

2

If applicable, connect the sensors.

For details about sensor connections, refer to Technical Data of the Sensors.

3

Verify for a correct routing and fixing of the cables to prevent any collision of cables and moving parts.

LOOSE WIRING OR CABLING CAUSES ELECTRIC SHOCK

Tighten wiring or cabling connections in conformance with the torque specifications.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

Grounding the Axis

The following components of the axis have to be grounded:

oMotor (for more information about grounding the motor, refer to the corresponding motor manual)

oAll costumer attachments

Bolt ground cables to the ground connections at the axis (symbol IEC 60417 - 5019).

NOTE: When grounding the axis, use cables that respect the local standards that are in vigor, for example, cables that conform to NEC 70 / NFPA 79 in the USA.

ELECTRIC SHOCK DUE TO IMPROPER GROUNDING

oGround axis components in accordance with local, regional and/or national standards and regulations at a single, central point.

oVerify whether the motor is connected to the central ground.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

Multipoint grounding is permissible if connections are made to an equipotential ground plane-dimensioned to help avoid cable shield damage in the event of power system short-circuit currents.
