Electrical installation

Caution

Electrical installation safety warnings:

  • Ensure that all AC powered sources are switched off or have been disconnected during the installation.

  • The AC inputs and AC output wiring must be protected by fuses or miniature circuit breakers (MCB) which are suitable for the applied wire cross section.

  • Ensure that both the priority and the alternate AC inputs are protected against current levels higher than 16A.

  • External earth leakage switches (RCD or RCCB) must be integrated in the Filax electrical system.

  • Connect the priority AC source to the PRIORITY: L, N and PE terminals.

  • Connect the alternate AC source to the ALTERNATE: L, N and PE terminals.

  • Ensure that both the priority and alternate AC inputs are protected against current levels higher than 16A.

  • Connect the AC load to the OUTPUT: L, N and PE terminals.

Electrical connections

Configuration

Wire links:

  • If the AC load is less than 850W, remove the LINK+HIGH POWER: L and N wire links.

  • If the AC load is more than 850W, keep the LINK+HIGH POWER: L and N wire links in place.

Remove both links if the load is less than 850W

Frequency jumper:

  • If the installation frequency is 50 Hz, remove the frequency jumper, or place it on only one of the pins (this is the default setting).

  • If the installation frequency is 60 Hz, place the jumper on both pins.
