2. WIRING PRECAUTIONS
• Make sure to cut off all phases of the power supply externally before attempting installation or
wiring work.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock or damage to the product.
• Make sure to attach the terminal cover, offered as an accessory, before turning on the power or
initiating operation after installation or wiring work.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock.
• Connect the AC power supply to the dedicated terminals specified in the manual of the PLC main
unit.
If an AC power supply is connected to a DC input/output terminal or DC power supply terminal, the
PLC will burn out.
• Connect the DC power supply to the dedicated terminals specified in the manual of the PLC main
unit.
If an AC power supply is connected to a DC input/output terminal or DC power supply terminal, the
PLC will burn out.
• Do not wire vacant terminals externally.
Doing so may damage the product.
• Perform class D grounding (grounding resistance: 100 or less) to the grounding terminal on the
FX /FX /FX PLC main unit with a wire 2 mm
3S 3G 3U
Do not use common grounding with heavy electrical systems (refer to the manual of the PLC main
unit).
• Perform class D grounding (grounding resistance: 100 or less) to the grounding terminal on the
FX /FX PLC main unit with a wire as thick as possible.
3GC 3UC
Do not use common grounding with heavy electrical systems (refer to the manual of the PLC main
unit).
• When drilling screw holes or wiring, make sure cutting or wire debris does not enter the ventilation
slits.
Failure to do so may cause fire, equipment failures or malfunctions.
• Install module so that excessive force will not be applied to I/O connectors.
Failure to do so may result in wire damage/breakage or PLC failure.
• Connect input/output cables securely to their designated connectors.
Loose connections may cause malfunctions.
• Make sure to properly wire the terminal block in accordance with the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock, equipment failures, a short-circuit, wire breakage,
malfunctions or damage to the product.
- The disposal size of the cable end should follow the dimensions described in the manual.
- Tightening torque should follow the specifications in the manual.
- Tighten the screws using a Phillips-head screwdriver No.2 (shaft diameter 6mm (0.24") or less).
Make sure that the screwdriver does not touch the partition part of the terminal block.
• Make sure to properly wire to the terminal block (European type) in accordance with the following
precautions.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock, equipment failures, a short-circuit, wire breakage,
malfunctions or damage to the product.
- The disposal size of the cable end should follow the dimensions described in the manual.
- Tightening torque should follow the specifications in the manual.
- Twist the end of strand wire and make sure that there are no loose wires.
- Do not solder-plate the electric wire ends.
- Do not connect more than the specified number of wires or electric wires of unspecified size.
- Affix the electric wires so that neither the terminal block nor the connected parts are directly
stressed.
• Make sure to properly wire to the FX Series terminal blocks in accordance with the following
precautions.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock, equipment failures, a short-circuit, wire breakage,
malfunctions or damage to the product.
- The disposal size of the cable end should follow the dimensions described in the manual.
- Tightening torque should follow the specifications in the manual.
- Tighten the screws using a Phillips-head screwdriver No.2 (shaft diameter 6mm (0.24") or less).
Make sure that the screwdriver does not touch the partition part of the terminal block.
