In DER535 what does heat spreader connect to?

Hi, DER535 shows a metal heat spreader being right under the board and separated by insulating pads. To which circuit node does this metal heat spreader connect, or is it just floating?

Hi treez,
Thanks for posting in our PI forum.
The metal heat spreader in DER-535 is left floating. You may check the PCB layout on pages 10-11 and see that the holes does not have any connection with the rest of the circuit. Thank you.
