5-5-3
Screening
For all signal cables the best results are obtained if the screening is con-
nected to both ends: the VSD side and the at the source (e.g. PLC, or com-
puter). See Fig. 41.
It is strongly recommended that the signal cables be allowed to cross mains
and motor cables at a 90
angle. Do not let the signal cable go in parallel with
the mains and motor cable.
5-5-4
Single-ended or double-ended connection?
In principle, the same measures applied to motor cables must be applied to all
control signal cables, in accordance with the EMC-Directives.
For all signal cables as mentioned in section 5-5-2 the best results are
obtained if the screening is connected to both ends. See Fig. 41.
Note
Each installation must be examined carefully before applying the proper EMC
measurements.

5-5-5
Current signals ((0)4-20 mA)
A current signal like (0)4-20 mA is less sensitive to disturbances than a 0-10 V
signal, because it is connected to an input which has a lower impedance (250
) than a voltage signal (20 k
). It is therefore strongly advised to use current
control signals if the cables are longer than a few metres.
