5.7.2. Use of EMC-Compliant Cables
Danfoss recommends braided shielded/armored cables to optimize EMC immunity of the control
cables and the EMC emission from the motor cables.
The ability of a cable to reduce the in and outgoing radiation of electric noise depends on the
transfer impedance (Z
). The shield of a cable is normally designed to reduce the transfer of
T
electric noise; however, a shield with a lower transfer impedance (Z
) value is more effective than
T
a shield with a higher transfer impedance (Z
).
T
Transfer impedance (Z
) is rarely stated by cable manufacturers, but it is often possible to estimate
T
transfer impedance (Z
) by assessing the physical design of the cable.
