2.8 Earthing Screened Cables
It is recommended that screened control cables be connected with cable clamps at both ends to the metal cabinet of the frequency converter. The table below
shows earth cabling for optimal results.
Correct earthing
Control cables and cables for serial communication must be fitted with cable clamps at
both ends to ensure the best possible electrical connection.
Incorrect earthing
Do not use twisted cable ends (pigtails) since these increase screen impedance at high
frequencies.
Earth potential protection
When the earth potential between the frequency converter and the PLC or other
interface device is different, electrical noise may occur that can disturb the entire system. This can be resolved
by fitting an equalizing cable next to the control cable. Minimum cable cross section is 8 AWG.
50/60 Hz earth loops
When using very long control cables, 50/60 Hz earth loops may occur that can disturb
the entire system. This can be resolved by connecting one end of the screen with a 100 nF capacitor and
keeping the lead short.
Serial communication control cables
Low frequency noise currents between frequency converters can be
eliminated by connecting one end of the screened cable to frequency converter terminal 61. This terminal
connects to earth through an internal RC link. It is recommended to use twisted-pair cables to reduce the
differential mode interference between conductors.
