The selection of motor cables and installation affect the performance of EMI Filter. Please follow 
the precautions mention below. 
1. Use the cable that has braid shielding (The effect of double shielding is better) 
2. The shield on both sides of the motor cable should be grounded in the shortest distance and 
the largest contact area. 
3. The protective paint of the U-shape saddle and metal plate should be removed in order to 
ensure the good contact. Please see figure 1. 
4. It should have correct connection between the braid shielding of the motor cable and the 
metal plate. The braid shielding on both sides of the motor cable should be fixed by the U-
shape saddle and metal plate. Please see figure 2 for the correct connection.
