Further information for ABB E296-CP - E295 CP Compensator 250 VAC 18mm 2TAZ310003R1000
The E296-CP compensator module is used when illuminated buttons (command points) are used in combination with impulse switches. The additional module (compensator) enables a higher number of illuminated buttons (inductance) to be connected to an impulse switch.
If no compensator module is used and the glow lamp return current is higher than 5mA, the impulse switch can respond unintentionally.
