FAQ

What type of connector is used to link this sub-base to a PLC module?
The ABE7-H16R20 uses a HE10 (IDC) connector. You would typically use a pre-fabricated cable, like the Schneider Electric ABF T2… series, to connect it to the corresponding I/O card.

Can I use this sub-base for both input and output signals?
While the label mentions “Inputs / Outputs,” this specific model, ABE7-H16R20, is optimized for 16-channel relay output modules. It provides the necessary common connections (COM) for relay contacts. Using it for inputs might be possible but is not its primary designed function.

What is the maximum wire size that can be used with the screw terminals?
The screw terminals on the ABE7 series are designed to accept a wire cross-section from 0.09 mm squared to 1.5 mm squared (AWG 28 to AWG 16), ensuring a secure connection for standard control cabinet wiring.
