8Wiring and Grounding Guidelines for PanelView Plus Terminals
External Power Supply for Nonisolated DC Terminals
Use a single, 24V DC power supply, such as catalog number 2711P-RSACDIN,
to power PanelView Plus terminals with a nonisolated DC power supply. Using a
separate, isolated, and ungrounded source with each terminal prevents ground
loop currents from damaging the product.
The output on the power supply must be isolated from the input and not
connected to the earth/ground.
The nonisolated power supply does not provide galvanic isolation. A Class 2 or
safety extra-low voltage (SELV) isolated power supply with a 24V DC nominal
output voltage is required to power the terminal.
Figure 1 - AC Power Supplies Powering Multiple PanelView Plus DC Terminals
ATTENTION: Use a Class 2 or SELV power supply as required by local
wiring codes for your installation. The Class 2 and SELV power sources
provide protection so that under normal and single-fault conditions, the
voltage between conductors, and between the conductors and functional
earth or protective earth, does not exceed a safe value.

Wiring and Grounding Guidelines for PanelView Plus Terminals 9
Earth/Ground Connection for Nonisolated DC Terminals
PanelView Plus devices with a nonisolated DC power supply have a functional
earth/ground (FE) terminal that you must connect to a low-impedance
earth/ground:
•The 700 to 1500 terminals have the functional earth/ground connection
on the rear of the display module.
•The 400 and 600 terminals have the functional earth/ground connection
on the power input terminal block.
The functional earth terminal wiring requires a minimum wire gauge.
On most PanelView Plus DC terminals, the earth/ground terminal is internally
connected to the DC- terminal within the product.
The functional earth terminal is typically connected to a system grounding bus. If
the grounding bus has tapped holes, the conductor from the functional earth
terminal must have a ground lug on the ground bus end. A bolt should pass
through a star washer, then through the ground conductor lug, then into the
ground bus.
Use the shortest, practical wire length to connect the functional earth/ground to
a low-impedance earth/ground. The ground wire must be either green or green
with a yellow stripe.
Refer to local wiring codes and regulations for grounding requirements.
IMPORTANT The functional earth connection to ground is mandatory. This
connection is required for noise immunity, reliability, and
Electromagnetic Compliance (EMC) with the European Union (EU)
EMC directive for CE-mark conformance.

18 Wiring and Grounding Guidelines for PanelView Plus Terminals
Protective Earth Connection for AC Terminals
PanelView Plus terminals with an AC power input have a protective
earth/ground terminal that you must connect to a low-impedance earth/ground.
The protective earth/ground connection is on the power input terminal block.
The protective earth terminal requires a minimum wire gauge.
The protective earth/ground terminal is typically connected to a system
grounding bus. If the grounding bus has tapped holes, the conductor from the
functional earth terminal must have a ground lug on the ground bus end. A bolt
should pass through a star washer, then through the ground conductor lug, then
into the ground bus.
Use the shortest, practical wire length to connect the protective earth/ground to
a low-impedance earth/ground. The ground wire must be either green or green
with a yellow stripe.
Refer to local wiring codes and regulations for grounding requirements.
Figure 8 - Protective Earth Connection for 400 and 600 AC Terminals
IMPORTANT The protective earth connection is required for both electrical safety and
Electromagnetic Compliance (EMC) with the European Union (EU) EMC
directive for CE-mark conformance.
