As the name indicates, the Installation Guidelines are intended to provide information on how to properly install and to commission PROFINET wiring and to provide practical guidance on the best ways to achieve this.

The presentation of information in these documents has been kept as simple as possible. Accordingly, background knowledge about PROFINET mounting and cabling is not required. However, a basic technical knowledge of electrical installation is assumed. The operating principle of PROFINET is not discussed in the Installation Guidelines. If you require this information, please use the respective documents of PI or corresponding technical literature.
