Woodward recommends the use of shielded, twisted-pair cables for the CAN bus (see
examples).

NOTICE!
Damage to adjacent electronic components due to induced voltages
• Implement protection circuits as detailed below.
Fig. 71: Protection circuit (example)
Interferences in the interaction of all components may aect the function of electronic
devices. One interference factor is disabling inductive loads, like coils of electromagnetic
switching devices.
When disabling such a device, high switch-o induced voltages may occur, which might
destroy adjacent electronic devices or result interference voltage pulses, which lead to
functional faults, by capacitive coupling mechanisms.
Since an interference-free switch-o is not possible without additional equipment, the
relay coil is connected with an interference suppressing circuit.
If 24 V (coupling) relays are used in an application, it is required to connect a protection
circuit to avoid interferences.
