CHAPTER 2.0 Safety & EMC Instructions

CDS7324 (FORMERLY LSF-0819)
Rev. A
INSTALLATION & USER’S MANUAL
Wherever possible, insulated conductors and cables that have flame-retardant properties shall be used.
Where insulated conductors and cables can constitute a fire hazard due to the propagation of a fire or the
emission of toxic or corrosive fumes (e.g. PVC), guidance from the cable supplier should be sought. In particular it
is important to maintain the integrity of circuits having a safety function (e.g. emergency stop) for as long as
possible under these conditions.
The mechanical strength and thickness of the insulation shall be such that the insulation cannot be damaged in
operation or during laying, especially for cables pulled into ducts.
The voltage drops on cables and conductors shall not exceed 5% of the nominal voltage. The current carrying
capacity of the conductors and cables is determined by both:
•
the maximum allowable conductor temperature under the highest possible steady state current under normal
conditions; and
•
the ultimate allowable short-time conductor temperature under short circuit conditions.
b) Wiring Practices - Connections and routing
All connections, especially those of the protective bonding circuit, shall be secured against accidental loosening.
c) Wiring Practices - Conductor and cable runs
Conductors and cables shall be run from terminal to terminal without splices or intervening joints
Where it is necessary to connect and disconnect cables and cable assemblies, sufficient extra length shall be
provided for this purpose.
The terminations of multicore cables shall be adequately supported where undue strain can be exerted on the
terminations of the conductors.
Wherever possible, the protective conductor shall be placed close to the associated live conductors in order to
decrease the impedance of the loop.
d) Wiring Practices - Conductors of different circuits
Subject to the constraints for EMC suppression given in this User’s manual, conductors of different circuits may
be laid side by side. They may occupy the same duct (e.g. conduit, cable trunking system) and may be in the
same multicore cable, provided that the arrangement does not impair the proper functioning of the respective
circuits. Where these circuits operate at different voltages, the conductors shall be either separated by suitable
barriers or insulated for the highest voltage to which any conductor within the same duct can be subjected.
Circuits which are not switched off by the supply disconnecting device (circuit breaker) shall be either physically
separated from other wiring or distinguished by color (or both) so that they can be identified as being live when
the supply disconnecting device is in the OFF or OPEN position.
e) Wiring Practices - Identification of conductors
For safety reasons, the color Green or the color Yellow shall not be used where there is a possibility of confusion
with the bicolor combination GREEN-AND-YELLOW.
Color identification using combinations of colors may be used provided there can be no confusion and that
GREEN or YELLOW is not used, except in the bicolor combination GREEN- AND-YELLOW.
