Cable layout
Figure 4-16 indicates the clearances which should be observed around the drive and related 'noisy'
power cables by all sensitive control signals / equipment.
Figure 4-16 Drive cable clearances
Any signal cables which are carried inside the motor cable (i.e. motor thermistor, motor
NOTE
brake) will pick up large pulse currents via the cable capacitance. The shield of these
signal cables must be connected to ground close to the motor cable, to avoid this noise
current spreading through the control system.
