2.2 Shielded cables
The cables of the control signals and of the motor must be shielded in order to meet radio
interference rules, in accordance with IEC 60364-5-52 and EMC specifications.
The shielding of the motor and control cables must be connected to the earth terminal in
the frequency converter and in the motor and sensors, PLC etc.
If unshielded cables are used, signal interference can occur in the control inputs. Such
interference will not normally damage the frequency converter, but will interfere with
regulation.

Be careful! Reinforcement designed as mechanical protection (e.g. earth cable) is not
suitable for an EMC-correct installation.
Our preference is to use twisted cable for signal cables.
