Motor Cable

Disturbing ground loops
Incorrect connection of protective earth connections in motor cables may cause disturb-
ing ground loops and malfunction of the motor.
→ The described measures prevent disturbing ground loops.
→ Connect the protective earth conductors additionally led in motor cables directly to
the shield line and label them with
→ If the procedure turns out to be impracticable, omit the earth conductor connection
in the motor cables and wire a separate earth conductor in parallel to the motor ca-
bles..
→ Ensure to return the cable to the drive! Do not wire the cable with another ground
loop.
Use shielded cables for the motor in order to keep interference as low as possible.
The cable shield must be connected large-area with 360° shield termination. In addition,
the motor cable should be as short as possible to reduce electromagnetic radiation and
capacitive currents.
