Motor cable

ƒ

Only use shielded motor cables with braids made of tinned or nickel−plated copper.
Shields made of steel braids are not suitable.
– The overlap rate of the braid must be at least 70 % with an overlap angle of 90 °.

ƒ

The cables used must correspond to the requirements at the location (e.g.
EN 60204−1).

ƒ

Use Lenze system cables.

ƒ

Extensively apply the shielding in the plug and attach it in a way which ensures
electrical conductivity.

ƒ

The motor cable is optimally installed if
– it is separated from mains cables and control cables,
– it only crosses mains cables and control cables at right angles,
– it is not interrupted.

ƒ

If the motor cable must be opened all the same (e.g. due to chokes, contactors, or
terminals):
– The unshielded cable ends may not be longer than 100 mm (depending on the

cable cross−section).

– Install chokes, contactors, terminals etc. spatially separated from other

components (with a min. distance of 100 mm).

– Install the shield of the motor cable directly before and behind the point of

separation to the mounting plate with a large surface.

ƒ

Connect the shield with a large surface to PE in the terminal box of the motor at the
motor housing.
– Metal EMC cable glands at the motor terminal box ensure a large surface

connection of the shield with the motor housing.
