Operation / Installation Manual; Requirements For The Power Cable; Mounted On A Wall Or On A Special Rack - Ecotap Homebox Manuel

19. OPERATION / INSTALLATION MANUAL

19.1 Requirements for the power cable

The power cable must be attached to a separate group in the distributor /
meter cupboard. For an automatic system, this must be the C or D charac-
teristic or equivalent. Cabling must be in full conformity with NEN1010.
Exceptions to NEN1010 are:
- Earth distribution resistance < 30 Ohm.
- Installation resistance < 2 Ohm.

19.2 Mounted on a wall or on a special rack

The Homebox should preferably be mounted at a height of +/- 100 centi-
metres, measured from the lower edge of the
Homebox.
First remove the steel shield by removing the torx screw at the bottom.
Guide the cable into the Homebox and secure the cable using the cable gland. (The cable
can be guided into the system via the back or via the cable gland opening at the bottom).
Connect the wires in the way indicated on the terminator strip.
Connect the phase wires* to the terminals L1 / L2 / L3.
Connect the neutral wire to the neutral terminal.
Connect the shielding/earthing wire to the neutral terminal.
(*This can be 1-phase or 3-phase, depending on the available power source.
If you want to use 1-phase, connect to Phase 1 and to Neutral and Earth.)
Use the proper screwdriver size for connecting the wires, and tighten the screws with a tor-
que of at least 3.5Nm. Do not forget to connect the loose earthing wire from the Homebox
to the loose cover.
Use the correct screws included to securely fix the Homebox to the wall or rack.
When using the special mounting rack, the cable must be guided through the opening of
the structure. The mounting rack must be sunk at least 70 centimetres (max. 90) into the
underground and may need to be anchored in concrete.
