Braking resistor connection

• Shorten the cables to the required length.
• Use 2 tightly twisted leads or a 2-core shielded power cable. Cable cross section according to trip current I_F of F16.
• Protect the braking resistor with a bimetallic relay (F16, see wiring diagram) with trip class 10 or 10A. Set the trip current according to the technical data of the braking resistor.
• For braking resistors in the BW..-T series, you can connect the integrated thermostat using a 2-core, shielded cable as an alternative to a bimetallic relay.
• The flat-type braking resistors have internal thermal overload protection (fuse cannot be replaced). Install the flat-type braking resistors together with the appropriate touch guard.
