compatibility (EMC). The table contains information on the general rules governing
clearances to enable you to choose the right cables.
How to Read the Table
To find out how to run two cables of different types, proceed as follows:
1. Look up the type of the first cable in column 1 (Cables for ...).
2. Look up the type of the second cable in the corresponding field in column 2
(and Cables for ...).
3. Read off the guidelines to be observed from column 3 (Run ...).
