Battery Cable; Cable Linking The Earth To The Installation; Precautions Regarding Electromagnetic Disturbance Generated By The Appliance - Cristec CPS2 Serie Manuel D'utilisation

4.2.3 Battery cable

The CPS2 charger is equipped with 4 output terminals:
K4: - BAT (minus set of batteries)
K5: +BAT D (plus start-up battery for marine-type applications)
K6: +BAT 1 (plus battery set 1)
K7: +BAT 2 (plus battery set 2)
Up to 3 metres, the cross-section of the battery cables should be at least equal to or greater than the values
provided in the table below:
Model
CPS2/12-16
CPS2/12-25
CPS2/12-40
The installer should choose the type of cable (H07-VK, MX...) according to the type of application
and the applicable standards.
The cable bushings or glands must remain on the lower side of the case to avoid the linking cables
being damaged on the metal walls of the case and to guarantee insulation between the active
conductors and the electrical exposed conductive part.
See relevant drawing in the appendix.

4.2.4 Cable linking the earth to the installation

The shore-power unit's case should be connected to the installation's earthing system in accordance
with current standards governing the relevant application.
To that effect, connect the installation-to-earth cable to the earthing screw located inside the shore-
power unit (see drawing in appendix).
This cable's cross-section should be at least 2.5mm², type HO7-VK and equipped with an appropriate
terminal.

4.2.5 Precautions regarding electromagnetic disturbance generated by the appliance

Use shielded cables for all the connections (*). The shielding should be earthed at both the transmitting
and the receiving ends.
Keep cable length and shielding connections down to a minimum.
Route cables as close as possible to conductive parts ("loose" cables or loops should be avoided –
cables should be flattened against conductive parts).
Keep power cables separate from battery cables.
Keep power cables separate from control cables (at least 200mm).
The cables should only supply power to this appliance; any branch-offs or short-outs intended to power
another appliance are prohibited.
(*) This is a recommendation for installation rather than an obligation. The installing electrician should
decide whether or not to use shielded cable depending on the EMC environment.
