PVC
Note: Shielded or armored cable, or
cabling in metal conduit is always
recommended to minimize radio fre-
quency interference.

EMT
Four-conductor cabling in metal
conduit (three phase conductors and
PE), eg, EMT, or four-conductor ar-
mored cable
Yes with motors up to 100 kW
(135 hp). A potential equalization
between the frames of motor and
