Electrical connection

5.1 General instructions

Electric and magnetic fields often cause interference voltages in the
measuring circuit. This interference comes primarily from power lines lying
parallel to the measuring leads, but it can also come from nearby contactors
or electric motors. Interference voltage can also be coupled galvanically,
especially by grounding the measurement chain at a number of points.
Please follow the below instructions:
• Use only shielded and low-capacitance measurement cables for six wire
circuit from HBM.
• Do not position the measurement cables parallel to power lines or control
circuits. If this is not possible (e.g. in cable shafts), protect the
measurement cable with armoured steel tubing, for example and keep it a
minimum distance of 50cm away from the other cables. Power lines or
control circuits should be twisted together (15 twists per meter).
• Guard against stray fields from transformers, motors and contactors.
• Do not ground the transducer, the amplifier and the indicator more than
once. All the measurement chain devices must be connected to the same
grounded conductor.
Grounding concept (Greenline)
The cable shield of the connection cable is connected to the measuring head
of the transducer. This encloses the measurement system in a Faraday cage.
Any electromagnetic interference active here does not affect the measure-
ment signal.
In the event of interference due to potential differences (equalization currents)
the zero operating voltage and the housing ground should be isolated from
one another at the amplifier and a potential equalization line should be run
between the housing and the amplifier housing (flexible stranded wire,
2
10 mm conductor cross-section).

The transfer torque wrench comes supplied with a ready-made 6-wire
connection cable (six-wire circuit).
