Supply Connections

Type of mains supply network
Before you connect electrical equipment, you must verify that it is
adapted to the mains system at your venue. If in doubt consult the
electrician or the utility company.
Protection on the supply side
The power outlet and the supply cable which feed the MEMORACK
must be adequately protected against overload and short-circuit by the
installation; verify the applicable wiring regulations.
Supply Connection
MEMORACK 15 : inlet CEE 32 A (P17), cable optional
MEMORACK 30 : inlet HARTING 4 x 80 A + PE
Supply cable
The size of the Neutral wire must at least be equal to the size of the
phases; reduced-size Neutral wires are DANGEROUS and are NOT
allowed. All supply cables and extension cables should have all
conductors under the same sleeve, in order to reduce unwanted
interferences to audio and video equipment.
The supply cable should be sized for the rating of the MEMORACK:
• 27 A per phase for three-phase star operation (3 x 400 V + N);
, EPR insulation, 85 °C for MEMORACK 15
e.g. cable 5 x 4 mm 2
• 50 A per phase for three-phase operation (3 x 400V + N);
, EPR insulation, 85 °C for MEMORACK 30
2
e.g. cable 5 x 10 mm
Cables for lower current ratings are only allowed if the protection
devices in the supply installation (supply fuses or supply circuit-breaker)
are selected accordingly.
