    Auxiliary power supply 11.2.2. Notes A. Use the “Belden 3105A”- type two-wire cable for instance (not supplied by ABB SACE). B. Use the “Belden 3106A”- type three-wire cable for instance (not supplied by ABB SACE). C. The unit has a “backup-protection” function; if the first command to the opening solenoid does not open immediately the circuit- breaker (TC partially fault), TRIP commands are repeatedly sent until the circuit-breaker opens (providing a Vaux is present) or the current disappears (if self-power supplied).
