EMC and Harmonics
Cable manufacturers rarely state the transfer impedance (Z
assessing the physical design of the cable, such as:
•
The conductibility of the shield material.
•
The contact resistance between the individual shield conductors.
•
The shield coverage, that is the physical area of the cable covered by the shield - often stated as a percentage
value.
•
Shield type, that is braided or twisted pattern.
a
Aluminum-clad with copper wire.
b
Twisted copper wire or armored steel wire cable.
c
Single-layer braided copper wire with varying percentage shield coverage (this type of cable is the typical Danfoss
reference cable).
d
Double-layer braided copper wire.
e
Twin layer of braided copper wire with a magnetic, shielded/armored intermediate layer.
f
Cable that runs in copper tube or steel tube.
g
Lead cable with 1.1 mm (0.04 in) wall thickness.
