Figure 16:  Laying the cables
6.1.2  Connection of the shield connection
•  Cable shields must not be used for power supply.
•  A cable shield must not assume the function of an N or PE conductor.
•  Always lay cable shields over a large surface.
•  Do not extend the cable shield by unshielded wire connections to the earthing point. 
This reduces the shielding effect by up to 90 %.
•  Lay the cable shield over a large surface directly after the entry point of the control 
cabinet.
6.1.3  Connection of the protective earth
•  The drive converter or the control cabinet in which the drive converter is installed 
must be connected to protective earth at the installation site.
•  Use a protective earth conductor that corresponds at least half the cross-section of 
the cables used to supply the power terminals.
•  An earthing stud is provided at the drive converter for connecting the motor protec-
tive earth.
•  Theresistanceoftheprotectiveearthshouldbe0.1Ωorless.
•  According to EN 61800-5-1, the minimum cross-section of the protective earth con-
ductor must comply with the local safety regulations for protective earth conductors 
for equipment with high leakage current.
