Electrical installation
Cable cross-sections
In a dV/dt filter with separate Voltage Peak Limiter (Type 4), the connections between dV/dt
reactor and Voltage Peak Limiter are already installed on the Voltage Peak Limiter.
Table 4- 1
Table 4- 2
Cable type: 600 V, UL style 3271, operating temperature 125 °C
CAUTION
The connection to the DC link of the Power Module must be routed according to IEC
61800-5-2:2007, Table D.1 in order to rule out short-circuiting or ground faults.
This can be accomplished, for example, by:
Eliminating the risk of mechanical damage to the cables
Using cables with double insulation
Maintaining adequate clearance, using spacers, for example
Routing the cables in separate cable ducts or tubes
Note
The connections should be kept as short as possible.
The maximum cable length between the Power Module and the dV/dt filter compact (motor
cables and cables to the DC link) is 5 m.
An equivalent cable type must be used when replacing enclosed cables.
