Where several conductors are to be connected, the difference between the wires/cables
used must not exceed one DIN Standard size level.
Bei Mehrleiteranschluss darf maximal ein DIN-Normgrößen-Sprung zwischen den
verwendeten Leitern liegen.
En cas de raccordement de plusieurs conducteurs, il faut 1 écartement normalisé max.
entre les conducteurs.
In caso di collegamento a più conduttori, è ammesso al massimo un salto di grandezze
DIN standard fra i conduttori utilizzati.
En caso de conexión de múltiples conductores puede haber como máximo un salto de
