Figure 31: Emergency lighting with 1…10 V DIM ECG

It must be noted that some accessory components (e.g. DIM SA sig-
nal amplifiers) are not approved for battery operation. Therefore, it is
important to make sure that these components are never connected
to DC voltage. In this case the signal amplifier, for example, consti-
tutes a fixed resistance that is connected to the control line. The dim-
mer setting of an ECG is then around 20 %, and accordingly higher
for more than one.

Terminals/Cable cross-sections/Wire stripping lengths

For the combined terminals used in the QTi DALI/DIM for T5 and T8
fluorescent lamps, both solid lines as well as flexible lines are permis-
sible. The contacts of the terminal can be made at the top via a so-
called insulation displacement contact and via a plug contact (wire
stripping length 8.5-11 mm). Likewise for ECGs with push terminals
(HF DIM, QTi T/E DALI/DIM), both solid lines (wire stripping length
8.5-9.5 mm) and flexible lines are also permitted provided these are
tinned, ultrasound welded or fitted with wire-end sleeves.
