Design of the cables
The cables used must comply with the approvals required for the location
ƒ
(e.g. UL).
The cross−section of the PE conductor must be dimensioned according to
ƒ
the relevant national regulations.
The effectiveness of a shielded cable is reached by:
ƒ
–
Providing a good shield connection through large−surface shield
contact.
–
Using only braided shields with low shield resistance made of tin−plated
or nickel−plated copper braid.
–
Using braided shields with an overlap rate > 70 % and an overlap angle
of 90 °.
–
Keeping unshielded cable ends as short as possible.
Use system cables or shielded cables for these connections:
External brake resistor (, Mounting Instructions of the brake resistor)
ƒ
The following connections need not be shielded:
Mains
ƒ
DC bus, cable length up to 0.3 m
