4.6 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
All field wiring connections are accessible by removing the lower lid, which is secured by two screws. Note that it is
the responsibility of the installer to observe all local regulations and approval requirements, and to use cable to suit
the environmental requirements of the particular application. Obtain and check any hazardous area work permits
required before applying power to the MSM400.
The diagram below shows the layout of external connection terminals: all terminal blocks are suitable for wires

to 2.5mm

(26-12 AWG). Insulation should be stripped back 7mm.
Ensure wiring is suitable for the load current and the insulation is suitable for the voltage, temperature and
environment of the installation.
Note that in intrinsically safe systems, apparatus connected to the MSM400 must not be supplied from a voltage
greater than 250V rms or 250V DC.
