Cables Between The Power Cabinets; Cable Specification List - ABB HVC Installation Manual

HVC 450 kW E-Bus Charger Installation Guide
Use local regulations and datasheet of the manufacturer to determine the cable diameter for
the DC power cables. Recommended cable for the 450 kW system is 185 mm
(with a reinforced isolation > 5400 V DC) for a distance until 492.13 ft.

4.4.5. Cables between the Power Cabinets

The following cables are not in the scope of supply of ABB.

1x GND cable;

1x Interlock cable;

1x CAN cable.
For detailed information about type of glass fiber cable which are needed,
see Communication glass fiber cable on Page 21.
For the overview of the grounding of the system, see Appendix J Ground
overview of the system on Page 127.
