Control cables

7.4.3 Control cables
Control cables must be shielded to minimise interference injections.
ƒ
For lengths of 200 mm and more, use only shielded cables for analog and digital
ƒ
inputs and outputs. Under 200 mm, unshielded but twisted cables may be used.
Connect the shield correctly:
ƒ
– The shield connections of the control cables must be at a distance of at least 50
mm from the shield connections of the motor cables and DC cables.
– Connect the shield of digital input and output cables at both ends.
– Connect the shield of analog input and output cables at one end (at the drive
controller).
To achieve an optimum shielding effect (in case of very long cables, with high
ƒ
interference) one shield end of analog input and output cables can be connected to
PE potential via a capacitor (e.g. 10 nF/250 V) (see sketch).
