9.1.3 Cables and fuses
By means of this section you can check whether you can still optimize your machine with regard to the material
usage. The specications are derived for the DIN VDE 0298 Part 4. The values apply approximately and only
for the intended operation. In marginal cases it must be always proceed according to the standard described
obove.
The following table shows the current capability of 3 and/or 5 core PVC cables (i.e. 2 and/or 3 loaded cores)
in dependence with the ambient temperature. The current is to be laid out to the input current of the frequency
inverter.

The use of special cables or the way of laying the cables allows even higher currents (see DIN VDE 0298 Part
4). The motor cable must correspond to the cross-section of the mains cable.
If in case of long lines (>30m) still maximum torque is required at the motor shaft, the cable should be dimensi-
oned for the next larger cross-section in order to reduce line resistances.
Mains fuses are to be designed for the rated input current of the inverter. The current/time-characteristic of the
fuse must be slow-acting in order to avoid premature tripping when the power reserves of the inverter are used.
