tial bonding is good (this must be done over a large area with good conductivity). It can
be assumed that equipotential bonding is good if all metal parts are well interconnected
and the electronics components are supplied from a single source.
Connecting a shield at one end prevents low-frequency, capacitive interference from
being coupled in (e.g. 50 Hz hum). In this case, the shield should be connected in the
control cabinet; a sheath wire may also be used for this purpose.
The cable to the temperature sensor on the motor (X177:53 to 55) must be shielded.
The shield must be connected to ground at both ends.
interference. The filter must be attached to the cabinet enclosure, mounting plate, etc.,
over a flat area. Incoming and outgoing cables must be physically separated.
Additional loads must be connected upstream of the filter (on the line side).
The controller used and the manner in which the rest of the control cabinet is wired will
determine whether an additional line filter needs to be installed.
20 cm between the line supply feeder cable and the motor cables (field, armature).
Use a partition if necessary.
Signal cables are defined as:
Digital signal cables: e.g. cables for incremental encoders
Analog signal cables: e.g. ±10 V setpoint cable
Serial interfaces: e.g. PROFIBUS-DP
Generally speaking, "ground" refers to all metallic conductive parts that can be
connected to a protective conductor, such as the cabinet enclosure, motor enclosure or
foundation ground.
