Use a separate grounding PE cable (2a) or a cable with a separate PE conductor (2b) if the
conductivity of the shield does not meet the requirements for the PE conductor (see Selecting
the power cables (page 96))

360-degree grounding is recommended if shielded cable is used. Ground the other end of
the input cable shield or PE conductor at the distribution board.

Use a separate grounding cable if the shield does not meet the requirements of IEC 61439-
1 (see Selecting the power cables (page 96))

Note: If there is a symmetrically constructed grounding conductor on the motor cable in addition
to the conductive shield, connect the grounding conductor to the grounding terminal at the drive
and motor ends.
Do not use an asymmetrically constructed motor cable for motors above 30 kW (see section
General guidelines (page 96)). Connecting its fourth conductor at the motor end increases bearing
currents and causes extra wear.
For a single phase connection, use terminals L1 and L2.
