Routing The Cables; Separate Control Cable Ducts - ABB PVS800-57B Hardware Manual

40 Planning the electrical installation

Routing the cables

Install the DC power cable, output AC power cable and the control cabling on separate
routes. The cable trays must have good electrical bonding to each other and to the
grounding electrodes.
Where control cables cross power cables, make sure that you set them at an angle as
near to 90 degrees as possible. Do not run additional cables through the inverter.
If four conductor AC cabling is used, install the three output phase cables symmetrically
and close to each other. Asymmetrical installation may induce current to grounding cables
and metal structures.
