2-8 Install the Module
Ground the Module When using shielded cable wire, ground the foil shield and drain wire
only at on end of the cable. We recommend that you wrap the foil
shield and drain wire together and connect them to a chassis
mounting bolt. At the opposite end of the cable, tape exposed shield
and drain wire with electrical tape to insulate it from electrical contact.
Refer to the Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines,
publication 1770-4.1 , for additional grounding information.
Chassis Ground
When you connect grounding conductors to the chassis grounding
stud, place a star washer under the first lug, then place a nut with a
captive lock washer on top of each ground lug.
