Connecting to protective earth

Connect the protective earthing screw (pos 1 in figure 26) on the rear of the IED to
the closest possible earthing point in the cubicle. Electrical codes and standards
require that protective earth cables are green/yellow conductors with a cross
section area of at least 2.5 mm
The cubicle must be properly connected to the station earthing system. Use a
conductor with a core cross section area of at least 4 mm
