Use a separate grounding PE conductor inside the conduit or a grounding cable, if the
conductivity of the conduit does not meet the requirements for the PE conductor (see Se-
lecting the power cables (page 69)).
2
Note: If the cross-section of the Cu PE conductor is less than 8 AWG, install a second Cu
PE conductor of the same cross-sectional area as the original PE conductor. Alternatively,
you can use a Cu PE conductor with at least 10 mm2 cross-section. See Selecting the power
cables (page 69).
Make sure of a correct grounding of the conduit at the cable entry. Ground the other end of
the conduit and grounding conductor (if used) at the distribution board.

External brake resistor (if used), see chapter Resistor braking (page 263).

Note: Do not use an asymmetrically constructed motor cable for motors above 30 kW. Connecting
its fourth conductor at the motor end increases bearing currents and causes extra wear.
