Note:
- Suitable cable must be used, either with metal cover (or screen). If a
cable with metal cover or screen is used (as on above figure), a potential
equalization along the entire length of the intrinsically safe circuit is not
necessary. Screen or metal cover must only be connected to the
overvoltage arrester.
- The current load capacity of the screen must correspond at least to that
of a 1,5 mm
