Electric shock due to live cables
If, during inverter operation, an insulated wire (L1, L2 or L3) should become detached from
the AC terminal, there is the risk that the cables of the RS485 communication become live.
Touching the cables can cause fatal electric shock.
• Attach the supplied plastic foil to the module
using the supplied expanding rivet. This
isolates the AC connection area in the
inverter from other terminals.
