Damage to the Power Plant Controller due to moisture penetration
Moisture can penetrate the Power Plant Controller due to unsealed cable glands.
• Only remove the number of sealing rings from the rubber seal in the cable gland to match the cable cross-section.
Unused cable glands
• Do not take the filler plugs out of the unused cable glands. This keeps the Power Plant Controller sealed.
