Building Technologies 4 EMC-compatible installation of SED2 29.07.2010
• Connect movable parts (e.g. control cabinet doors or
hinged frames) via flexible grounding mesh
• Connect grounding to earth via protective conductors since, even in the event of fault, grounding must not carry
hazardous voltage
• Avoid earth loops
4.4.2 Routing the cables
• Lay cables of different power sections, such as control, mains and motor cables, separately
• Avoid undesired coupling caused by parallel running control, power and motor cables
• Lay control, mains and motor cables separately, in separate cable ducts at a distance of at least 200 mm (see
illustration below). If cables must be crossed, run them at an angle of 90° if possible

• Keep cables to motors as short as possible, generally not exceeding 25 m
• If possible, lay external cables in sheet metal ducts or on metal carriers. The metal cable duct or carrier should
be earthed and its individual parts should be galvanically connected
• If it is not possible to run control, power and motor
cables separately in separate cable ducts or cable
carriers, the cable duct or carrier must at least have
metallic galvanically conductive partitions
