Electric cable size
Attention
The voltage on the compressor terminals must not deviate more than 10% from the
nominal voltage.
It is however highly recommended to keep the voltage drop over the supply cables at
nominal current below 5% of the nominal voltage.
If cables are grouped together with other power cables, it may be necessary to use
cables of a larger size than those calculated for the standard operating conditions.
Use the original cable entry. See section
.
To preserve the protection degree of the electric cubicle and to protect its components
from dust from the environment, it is mandatory to use a proper cable gland when
connecting the supply cable to the compressor.
Local regulations remain applicable if they are stricter than the values proposed below.
IEC versions
For IEC-designed control panels, the below suggested cable sections are calculated according to
EN60364-5-52 (Electrical installations of buildings - selection and erection equipment - current-
carrying capacities in wiring systems).
Standard conditions refer to:
Multi-core copper cables with 70˚C PVC or 90 °C XLPE/EPR insulation in cable conduits or cable
trunking systems (installation method B2) at 30˚C ambient temperature and operating at nominal
voltage. The cables may not be grouped with other power circuits or cables.
Worst case conditions refer to:
• Ambient temperature > 30 °C (86 °F).
• Cables in closed raceway, conduit or trunking system (installation method B2) at 46 °C
ambient temperature.
• Cables not grouped with other cables.
