4.4.2 Routing of cables
• Lay cables of different power sections, such as control, mains and motor cables, separately
• Avoid undesired coupling caused by parallel running control, power and motor cables
• Lay control, mains and motor cables separately, in separate cable ducts at a distance of at least 200 mm (see
illustration below). If cables must be crossed, run them at an angle of 90° if possible

• Keep cables to motors as short as possible, generally not exceeding 25 m
• If possible, lay external cables in sheet metal ducts or on metal carriers. The metal cable duct or carrier should
be earthed and its individual parts should be galvanically connected
• If it is not possible to run control, power and motor ca-
bles separately in separate cable ducts or cable carri-
ers, the cable duct or carrier must at least have metallic
galvanically conductive partitions
