▶
Cable shields not ending in a connector inside of the switch cabinet such as motor
cables must be connected to the ground bus.
▶
Both ends of the shield of shielded cables must generally be connected to the shell.
The line cross-sections should be selected carefully so that the maximum admissible
current is not exceeded at the maximum ambient temperature (see technical data). DIN
EN 60204-1 defines the admissible values for the individual line cross-sections which
must absolutely be taken into account.
The current carrying capacity in connection with the line cross-section of copper con-
ductors isolated with PVC or cables according to DIN EN 60204-1 for different types of
wiring are indicated in the following table. All values are related to an ambient temper-
ature of +40 °C and an operating temperature at the conductor of 70 °C.
