Field Wiring
The terminal base has connections for each of the eight relay
channels and an external supply to power field devices. Each relay
channel of the FP-RLY-420 has two terminals: N.O. (Normally
Open) and I.C. (Isolated Common). The external supply is not
needed for the internal operation of the FP-RLY-420; however,
you may connect an external supply to power field devices by
connecting to the V and C terminals of the terminal base. If you
connect an external supply to the V and C terminals, the total
current supplied cannot exceed 6 A.
Table 1 lists the terminal assignments for the signals of each
channel.
