5.3 Connecting the bus cable to the bus connector
Properties of the
bus cable
Rules for laying
cables
5-18
Use a two-conductor, twisted and shielded cable with the following
properties:

Operating capacity
Attenuation
Permissible conductor cross-section
Permissible cable diameter
When you lay the bus cable, take great care to ensure that it is:
not twisted
not stretched and
not compressed.
When laying the bus cable indoors, moreover, you must observe the
following boundary conditions (d
