12.1.20 Maximum motor cable lengths
Table 12-27 Maximum motor cable lengths (200V drives)
Table 12-28 Maximum motor cable lengths (400V drives)
Table 12-29 Maximum motor cable lengths (575V drives)
Table 12-30 Maximum motor cable lengths (690V drives)
• Cable lengths in excess of the specified values may be used only
when special techniques are adopted; refer to the supplier of the
drive.
• The default switching frequency is 3kHz for Open-loop and RFC.
The maximum cable length is reduced from that shown in Table 12-
27 and Table 12-28 if high capacitance motor cables are used. For
further information, refer to High-capacitance cables on page 75.
