Between control room and overvoltage protection
system a suitable cable must be used, if
necessary with metal cover or screen. Metal
cover or screen - if necessary - must be only
connected to the overvoltage protection system
on the electrode side. The cable must have an
outer isolation. Test voltage of the cable A: ≥ 500
V AC
Between overvoltage protection system and
capacitive electrode a suitable cable with metal
cover, screen or a suitable cable with metal
protection tube must be used (metal cover or
protection tube must not be earthed).
Test voltage of the cable B: ≥ 1500 V AC
