ABB ACS800-04 - Cable Types

Technical data 111
The protection can be improved by installing a larger supply transformer and/or bigger cables, and in
most cases by selecting aR fuses instead of gG fuses. Selection of smaller fuses improves the
protection, but it can affect the fuse life time and lead to unnecessary operation of the fuses.
In case of any uncertainty regarding the drive protection, please contact your local ABB.
 Cable types
The table below gives copper and aluminum cable types for different load currents.
Cable sizing is based on max. 9 cables laid on a cable ladder side by side, ambient
temperature 30 °C, PVC insulation, surface temperature 70 °C (EN/IEC 60204-1 and
IEC 60364-5-52:2001). For other conditions, size the cables according to local safety
regulations, appropriate input voltage and the load current of the drive.
