Note 1: In multi-motor system, the sum of all motor cable lengths
shall not exceed that given in the following table.
Note 2: Longer cables cause a motor voltage decrease which
limits the available motor power. The decrease in voltage de-
pends on the motor cable length and characteristics. A sine filter
(optional) at the drive output can also cause a decrease in
voltage. For more information, consult your local ABB Service
representative (http://new.abb.com/channel-partners/search).
*)Conducted and radiated emissions of these motor cable
lengths do not comply with EMC requirements.

EMC compatibility and motor cable length
To comply with the European EMC Directive (standard EN 61800-3), use the
following maximum motor cable lengths at 4 kHz switching frequency. See the
table below.
