11. Terminals and Wiring
All terminals are easy to access when mounted on the panel. Input and output terminals are separated from each
other (input below, output above) to help in error-free wiring.

Instructions:
a) Use appropriate copper cables that are designed for minimum operating temperatures of:
60°C for ambient up to 45°C and 75°C for ambient up to 60°C minimum.
b) Follow national installation codes and regulations!
c) Ensure that all strands of a stranded wire are fully inserted in the terminal connection.
d) Up to two stranded wires with the same cross section are permitted in one connection point (except PE wire).
e) Do not use the unit without PE connection.
f) Screws of unused terminal compartments should be securely tightened.
g) Ferrules are allowed.
12. Lifetime Expectancy and MTBF
These units are extremely reliable and use only the highest quality materials. The number of critical components such
as electrolytic capacitors has been reduced.

*) The Lifetime expectancy shown in the table indicates the minimum operating hours (service life) and is determined by the lifetime
expectancy of the built-in electrolytic capacitors. Lifetime expectancy is specified in operational hours and is calculated according to the
capacitor’s manufacturer specification. The prediction model allows only a calculation of up to 15 years from date of shipment.
**) MTBF stands for Mean Time Between Failure, which is calculated according to statistical device failures, and indicates reliability of a
device. It is the statistical representation of the likelihood of a unit to fail and does not necessarily represent the life of a product.
The MTBF figure is a statistical representation of the likelihood of a device to fail. A MTBF figure of e.g. 1 000 000h means that
statistically one unit will fail every 100 hours if 10 000 units are installed in the field. However, it cannot be determined if the failed unit
has been running for 50 000h or only for 100h.
