AKD2G-S Installation Manual, Safety 1 | 8 Electrical Installation
8.4.3.2 Grounding plates and shield connection clamps
A grounding plate is mounted to the drive.
Use shield connection clamps (see accessories manual). These hook into the
grounding plate and ensure optimum contact between the shield and the ground-
ing plate.
Kollmorgen recommends using Phoenix Contact SK14 shield clamps with cable
clamp range of 6-13mm.
8.4.3.3 Motor connector X1/X2 with shielding connection
Alternative connection for the motor power connection by mating connector with shield plate
and strain relief. Kollmorgen motor power and hybrid motor cables are configured with shield
plate.
Strip the external cable sheath to a length of
approx. 80 mm, taking care not to damage the
braided shield. Push the braided shield (1) back
over the cable and secure with a rubber sleeve (2)
or shrink sleeve.
Shorten all the wires apart from the protective earth
(PE) wire (green/yellow) by about 20 mm so that
the PE wire is now the longest wire. Strip all wires
and fit wire end ferrules.
Secure the braided shield of the cable with metal
cable ties (3) and fasten the cable.
Wire the connector as shown in the connection dia-
gram. Plug in the connector to the socket on the
front of the AKD2G and secure it with the red clip.
