All cables inside the cabinet must be connected as closely as possible to parts connected
with cabinet ground, such as a mounting plate or cabinet wall. Ducts made of sheet steel or
routing cables between between steel sheets (e.g. between the mounting plate and back
wall) should provide adequate shielding.
Avoid, where possible, routing unshielded cables, connected to the drive line-up, in the
immediate vicinity of noise sources, e.g. transformers. Signal lines (shielded and unshielded)
connected to the drive line-up, must be routed as far as possible away from strong external
magnetic fields (e.g. transformers, line reactors). In both cases, a distance of ≥ 300 mm is
usually sufficient.
Caution
The Voltage Clamping Module conducts a high leakage current via the functional ground.
This means that a permanent PE connection must be provided for the cabinet (PE) rail.
Measures according to EN 61800-5-1 must be taken e.g. PE conductor ≥10 mm
2
Cu or fit an
additional connection terminal for a PE conductor with the same cross-section as the original
PE conductor.
Signal and DC power supply cables
Operating unshielded signal and direct current supply cables (e.g. 24 V infeed with external
supply):
● Direct current supply cables: Max. permissible length: 10 m
● Unshielded signal cables: Max. permissible length: 30 m (without additional wiring)
For greater lengths, suitable wiring must be connected by the user to provide overvoltage
protection. For example:
