4.2.5 connection of the motor
4.2.5.1 Selection of the motor cable
The correct cabling as well as the motor cable plays an important part in case of low
power in connection with long motor cable lengths. Ferrite cores and low-capacitance
cables (phase/phase<65 pF/m, phase/screen<120 pF/m) at the output have the follow-
ing effects:
• longer motor line lengths
• less abrasion of the motor gearbox by leakage currents
• better EMC properties (reduction of the common-mode output currents to earth)
4.2.5.2 Cable-fed disturbances depending on the motor line length at AC supply
The maximum motor line length is depending on the capacity of the motor cable as well
as on the EMC emitted interference. The following data apply for operation under nom-
inal rating conditions.

Maximum motor cable length at AC supply
The line length can be extend significant by using motor chokes or filters. KEB
recommends the use of motor chokes or filters for a line length upto 50 m. Motor
chokes or filters are absolutely necessary upto 100 m.
4.2.5.3 Motor line length at operation with DC voltage
The maximum motor cable length at DC operation is basically dependent on the capaci-
ty of the motor cable. The internal filter is not active at DC operation. External measures
must be taken here, if necessary. The following data apply for operation under nominal
rating conditions.
