Series V VFD Control Cables
Enhanced Design for Superior Performance in Variable-Frequency Drives
600/1000 V Shielded
Series V cables for variable-frequency
drives (VFD) set the standard in high-
performance and reliable connectivity.
Their specially formulated cross-linked
polyethylene insulation provides superior
corona resistance, low capacitance
for longer runs, and excellent low-
temperature properties.
A symmetrical design places the ground
wires in the interstices of the conductors
for uniform conductor-to-ground
capacitance and impedance.
Smaller gauge cable feature a combination
foil/braid shield to offer exceptional
EMI/RFI protection in noisy environments.
On larger gauge cable, a double copper
tape is used to provide the same noise-
free operation.
This uniformity reduces the probability
of motor damage from common-mode
current.
Alpha Series V VFD cables are compatible
with drives from all major manufacturers.
