Install the D L40 Plus display conforming to NFPA 70E, Electrical Safety
Requirements for Employee Workplaces. In addition to the NFPA general
guidelines, refer to the following:
Careful cable routing helps minimize electrical noise. Route incoming
power to the module by a separate path from the communication cables.
Do not run communications wiring and power wiring in the same
conduit!
Where communication and wire paths must cross, make their intersection
perpendicular.
Grounding helps limit the effects of noise due to electromagnetic
interference (EMI). To avoid problems caused by EMI, properly ground all
equipment and use shielded cables.
Important: Power, input and output (I/O) wiring must be in accordance
with Class I, Division 2 wiring methods [Article 501-4(b) of the National
Electrical Code, NFPA70] and in accordance with the loc al authority ha ving
jurisdiction.
