4.4 Ground connection
To minimize noise connect properly the shield and/or the connector housing
and/or the frame to ground. Connect properly the cable shield to ground on
user's side. Lika's EC- pre-assembled cables are fitted with shield connection to
the connector ring nut in order to allow grounding through the body of the
device. Lika's E- connectors have a plastic gland, thus grounding is not possible.
If metal connectors are used, connect the cable shield properly as recommended
by the manufacturer. Anyway make sure that ground is not affected by noise. It
is recommended to provide the ground connection as close as possible to the
device. We suggest using the ground point provided in the cap (see the Figures,
use one TCEI M3 x 6 cylindrical head screw with two tooth lock washers).
