Chapter 8 – Tips and Tricks Shielding Use always screened cables for the interface cable and the supply cable. Thereby you reduce the interference probability by a ratio of 100 compared to unshielded cables and even up to a ratio of 1000 if you also avoid loops. The density of the shield netting should be at least 85%.
