Hi all,
I'm connecting several 4-20mA sensors together in parallel (only one shown below) The enclosure is ABS plastic with metal backplate
DAQ could be powered from 24 rail or separate PSU (optional)
I am wondering where exactly to ground the shield of the sensors? (only grounding at instrumentation end, not sensor end)
Many posts have talked about grounding at common/earth etc, would this be at the 0V rail? For all sensors? Can sensors and power supply be grounded together?
Any help and advice gratefully received
Thank you
