Selecting and connecting the cables
•
Use prefabricated MOTION-CONNECT cables from SIEMENS or shielded connecting cables.
•
The prefabricated MOTION-CONNECT cables reduce installation costs and increase the
operational reliability
Note
The cable shielding, made up of as many strands as possible, must have a high electrical
conductivity. Braided shields made of copper or aluminum are well suited.
When connecting, comply with the following:
•
Connect the shield to the converter.
•
Keep the unshielded cable ends as short as possible.
•
To ensure good discharging of high-frequency currents, provide contacting over a large
surface area.
