The light grey isCon
®
conductor is suitable for routing in the earth. It can
also be painted, e.g. with the paint of the facade. As the external light
grey protective jacket is non-conductive, it must be removed in the contact
areas.
• Shorten the isCon
®
conductor on-site to the required length using
standard cable cutters or saw.

Removing the light grey protective jacket (isCon
®
ProPI 75 LGR)
In the case of the isCon
®
ProPI 75 LGR conductor, before attaching ele-
ments for potential connection, remove the light grey jacket in the contact
area, so that the connection comes into contact with the black, weakly
conductive material.
ATTENTION
Risk of damage!
The black jacket may not be removed, as otherwise the connection to the
building's equipotential bonding can be interrupted. Observe the cutting
depth of the grey cable jacket of 1.5 mm.
When mounting isCon
