Cable length restrictions
There are 3 significant cable lengths which must be taken into account when designing a Regen system. Refer to Figure 6-1 on page 18.
6.4.1
AC supply connection
A is the AC cable length between the Regen inductor and the Regen drives terminals.
In general, no special precautions are necessary for the AC supply wiring in respect to the Regen drive. However the voltage in the wiring between
the Regen inductor and the Regen drive terminals is a source of radio frequency emission. To minimise emissions, these cables should be kept as
short as possible. Ideally, the inductors should be mounted close to the drive terminals.
If it is necessary to use a cable longer than 5m, a screened cable should be used with the screen grounded as shown in Figure 6-1 on page 18.
6.4.2
DC bus connection
B is the DC bus connection between the Regen and motoring drive, the + DC bus connections between the drives should be treated as a single two
core cable and not two individual cable / bus bar lengths.
The DC power output from the Unidrive which is used as the input stage to the motoring drive(s) carries a common-mode high frequency voltage
comparable with the output voltage from a standard drive. All precautions recommended for motor cables must also be applied to all cables
connected to this DC circuit.
