•
The use of a single, screened/shielded cable for each field device ensures good
screening/shielding and reduces crosstalk.
2.12.2
Field Cabling
•
The entire length of the field cabling connected to a unit should be screened/shielded.
The screen/shield should be connected to a low noise instrument earth at one end.
•
The screens/shields of field cabling must not be connected in a manner that creates
earth loops or that will result in the screens/shields carrying large currents from heavy
plants or equipment.
2.12.3
Interference and noise
•
Electrical equipment connected to the system should comply with applicable national or
international EMC standards.
•
Ideally, the 24 V supply reaching units should be free from large transients, fluctuations,
or high-frequency noise.
•
,To reduce the likelihood of radio frequency interference affecting the operation of units
it is recommended that neither units nor their cabling is installed close to the antennae
of high-powered radio, radar or satellite communication equipment.
