Argon user guide/Earthing
Connecting a protective earth to Argon drive is the most crucial single connection to be made. Argon has two earthing methods:
- Connect protective earth to J4 PE terminal (always required)
- Connect earthing wire directly to the metal case (highly recommended and may be required by regulations in some countries)
 | Supplying power to the drive without proper earthing will allow leakage current to raise voltage potential of the device case to hazardous levels. Also ELV circuits (the other ports than J4) may become hazardous without earthing. |
Earthing the J4 PE terminal
This is a mandatory connection. Follow the Argon wiring instructions.
