8.3.10.2 Preparing the motor connection cable
Overview
Motors are connected to a Motor Module using a motor connection cable with a connection
plug. We recommend that you use a completely prefabricated MOTION-CONNECT power cable.
If you are using a power cable or a MOTION-CONNECT power cable that has not yet been
completely prefabricated, then you must 󹪝rst fabricate the motor connection cable.
Requirement
NOTICE
Adherence to core and stripped lengths
If the speci󹪝ed core and stripped lengths are not complied with, single cores can be damaged
or shield contact prevented.
• Comply with the speci󹪝ed core and stripped lengths.
It is not possible to self-assemble motor connection cables having a core cross-section of
10mm
2
. In this case, use pre-assembled MOTION-CONNECT power cables.
