Chapter 4 Power Wiring
Shield Termination - SHLD
The Shield terminal provides a grounding point for the motor cable shield. It
must be connected to an earth ground by a separate continuous lead. Connect
the
motor cable
shield to this terminal on the drive (drive end) and the motor
frame (motor end). Use a shield terminating conduit fitting to connect shield
to this terminal. See Wiring and Grounding Guidelines for Pulse Width
Modulated (PWM) AC Drives, publication
RFI Filter Grounding
Using an optional RFI filter may result in relatively high ground leakage
currents. Therefore, the
filter must only be used in installations with
grounded AC supply systems and be permanently installed and solidly
grounded
(bonded) to the building power distribution ground. Be sure that the
incoming supply neutral is solidly connected (bonded) to the same building
power distribution ground. Grounding must not rely on flexible cables and
should exclude any form of plug or socket that would permit inadvertent
disconnection. Some local codes may require redundant ground connections.
The integrity of all connections should be periodically checked. See the
instructions supplied with the filter.
Power Cable Specifications
Various cable types can be used as input power cables and motor cables for
PowerFlex 755T Drives Configured to Order Program installations. For an in-
depth discussion of cable types, including a table of maximum motor cable
lengths, see the Wiring and Grounding Guidelines for Pulse Width Modulated
(PWM) AC Drives, publication
