Cable Routing 
If conduit is being used for wiring, use separate conduits for 
line voltage (mains), motor cables, and all interface/control 
wiring. 
To meet the UL requirements, if conduit is being used for 
wiring, the enclosure openings provided for conduit 
connections in the field shall be closed by UL listed conduit 
fittings with the same type rating (Type 1 / Type 12) as the 
enclosure.
Avoid running motor cables alongside or parallel to any other 
wiring. If it is necessary to run motor cables with other 
wiring, then maintain spacing between motor cables and 
other wiring in accordance with the table on Page 30. 
Wiring the VFD 
Refer to the table on Page 30 for maximum cable lengths by 
frame size. 
If three or more motor cables are used, each conductor must 
have its own overcurrent protection.
