6.4.1 Wiring Precautions
To ensure safe and stable operation, always observe the following wiring precautions.
1. For wiring for reference inputs and encoders, use the specified cables. Refer to 5 Specifications and
Dimensional Drawings of Cables and Peripheral Devices for details.
Use cables as short as possible.
2. For a ground wire, use as thick a cable as possible (2.0 mm 2 or thicker).
• At least class-3 ground (100 Ω max.) is recommended.
• Ground to one point only.
• If the servomotor is insulated from the machine, ground the servomotor directly.
3. Do not bend or apply tension to cables.
The conductor of a signal cable is very thin (0.2 to 0.3 mm), so handle the cables carefully.
4. Use a noise filter to prevent noise interference.
(For details, refer to 6.4.2 Wiring for Noise Control.)
• If the equipment is to be used near private houses or may receive noise interference, install a noise filter on
the input side of the power supply line.
• Because the SERVOPACK is designed as an industrial device, it provides no mechanism to prevent noise
interference.
5. To prevent malfunction due to noise, take the following actions:
• Position the input reference device and noise filter as close to the SERVOPACK as possible.
• Always install a surge absorber in the relay, solenoid and magnetic contactor coils.
• The distance between a power line (such as a power supply line or servomotor cable) and a signal line must
be at least 300 mm. Do not put the power and signal lines in the same duct or bundle them together.
• Do not share the power supply with an electric welder or electrical discharge machine. When the SERVO-
PACK is placed near a high-frequency generator, install a noise filter on the input side of the power supply
line.
6. Use a molded-case circuit breaker (QF) or fuse to protect the power supply line from high voltage.
• The SERVOPACK connects directly to a commercial power supply without a transformer, so always use a
QF or fuse to protect the SERVOPACK from accidental high voltage.
7. The SERVOPACKs do not have built-in ground protection circuits. To configure a safer system, install
an earth leakage breaker for protection against overloads and short-circuiting, or install an earth leakage
breaker combined with a wiring circuit breaker for ground protection.
