Protective connections for central components (AM600)
The SINAMICS S Booksize drive system and the Adapter Module 600 (AM600) are designed
for use in cabinets with a PE conductor connection.
Connect the protective conductor connection of the SINAMICS components to the protective
conductor connection of the control cabinet as follows:

For materials other than copper, increase the cross-section so that as a minimum, the same
conductivity is attained.
Incorporate all system components and machine parts in the protection concept.
Arrange the drive line-up on a single, bare metal mounting plate in order to comply with the
EMC limit values. Connect the mounting plate to the protective conductor connection of the
control cabinet through a low impedance.
Protective equalization for a central components (AM600)
A mounting plate serves simultaneously as potential equalization surface. This means that no
additional equipotential equalization is required within the drive line-up.
If a single, bare metal mounting plate is not available, you can establish equally good functional
equipotential bonding using cable cross-sections as listed in the table above or, as a minimum,
with the same conductivity.
Protective connections/potential equalization for distributed components
● The distributed components are designed for use with a connected protective conductor.
● Incorporate all system components and machine parts in the protection concept.
● Ensure that the following protective conductor connection paths are available:
– Via the hybrid cable.
– Via the PE connection. In this case, the protective conductor cross-section must be
≥4 mm
2
.
Each of these connections must be suitable as a protective connection.
