Customer-supplied Motor
Power Cables
For 2198-S263-ERSx and 2198-S312-ERSx single-axis inverters that are
paired with motors that require power cables greater than 2 AWG and up to
250 kcmil, customer supplied cable is necessary.
We recommend six conductor cables with three conductors for power and
another three conductors that can be twisted together to form a suitable
ground wire.
Follow these steps to prepare customer-supplied motor power cables.
1. Remove 279 mm (11.0 in.) of the cable jacket.
In addition, remove the same amount of shield braid, copper foil, or
other overall shielding.
2. Separate the power conductors from the ground conductors.
In this example, the power conductors are insulated and the ground
conductors are not.
3. Twist the three ground conductors together to form a single ground
conductor.
4. Apply heat shrink to the ground conductor.
5. Apply heat shrink over the cable jacket and the four insulated
conductors.
6. Trim the insulation to leave a strip length of 27 mm (1.06 in.)
IMPORTANT The cable clamp bracket and shield clamp, included with your drive, does
not apply to customer supplied cables larger than 2 AWG.
