10.5 Control Wiring and Terminals
10.5.1 Shielded Control Cables
Usually, the preferred method is to secure control and serial communication cables with shielding clamps provided at both ends to
ensure the best possible high frequency cable contact.
If the ground potential between the drive and the PLC is dierent, electric noise could disturb the entire system. Solve this problem
by tting an equalizing cable as close as possible to the control cable. Minimum cable cross-section: 16 mm

(6 AWG).

10.5.1.1 50/60 Hz Ground Loops
With long control cables, ground loops may occur. To eliminate ground loops, connect 1 end of the shield to the ground with a
100 nF capacitor (keeping leads short).

10.5.1.2 Avoid EMC Noise on Serial Communication
This terminal is connected to ground via an internal RC link. Use twisted-pair cables to reduce interference between conductors. The
recommended method is shown in the following illustration.
