4. WIRING

(1) When there are no particular optional

specifications

The wiring port is sealed with a cap (not water-proof)
that must be removed before wiring. At this time,
handle the wiring port in accordance with the JIS
C0920-1982 mentioned above.

(2) Wiring using waterproof glands

IMPORTANT

To prevent water or condensation from entering
the converter housing, waterproof glands are
recommended. Do not over-tighten the glands or
damage to the cables may result. Tightness of
the gland can be checked by confirming that the
cable is held firmly in place.

(3) Conduit Wiring

When wiring the conduits, pass the conduit through the
wiring connection port, and utilize the waterproof
gland to prevent water from flowing in. Place the
conduit pipe on an angle as shown in Figure 4.3.5.
Install a drain valve at the low end of the vertical pipe,
and open the valve regularly.
