Equipotential bonding
•
Install sufficiently dimensioned equipotential bondings, if potential differences are present or have to
be expected in your application between different parts of the installation.
•
The impedance of a equipotential bonding must be equal or lower than 10 % of the shield
impedance of the shielded signal cables between the same points.
•
The conductor cross section of a equipotential bonding must be able to withstand the maximum
possible compensating current. By experience, a conductor cross section of 16 mm² has proven to
be sufficient.
•
Equipotential bondings and shielded signal cables should be laid close to each other. This prevents
coming up inductive loops in which disturbances could be induced.
•
Equipotential bondings must be connected to PE with low impedance.
