Additional US requirements
Type MC continuous corrugated aluminum armor cable with symmetrical grounds or
shielded power cable is recommended for the motor cables if metallic conduit is not
used.
The power cables must be rated for 75 °C (167 °F).
Conduit
Where conduits must be coupled together, bridge the joint with a ground conductor
bonded to the conduit on each side of the joint. Bond the conduits also to the drive
enclosure. Use separate conduits for input power, motor, brake resistors and control
wiring. Do not run motor wiring from more than one drive in the same conduit.
