6.8. Auxiliary power cables and control cables

See "Appendix C – Mechanical drawings" for information on:
– Project-specific cable entry
– Dimensions between point of cable entry and terminals
See "Appendix D – Wiring diagrams" for information on:
– Conventions for cross-references and device identification
– Terminal designations

6.8.1. Preparing the cable entry and the cables

6.8.1.1. Determining the cable length

1. Determine the required length of a cable between the point of entry and the connection
point inside the cabinet.
2. Cut the cable to the required length before connection.

6.8.1.2. Routing the cables

– The auxiliary power supply cables enter the WCU compartment.
– The control cables enter the COU compartment.

6.8.1.3. Preparing cables for EMC plates - only top cable entry

1. Remove the grommets from the entry plate.
2. To ensure proper sealing, cut along the marking that
corresponds to the cable diameter (arrow).
3. Slide the grommet onto the cable and ensure that the
grommet fits tightly to prevent water from entering the
cabinet.
NOTE – If cables are routed through the cabinet floor, the
grommets can be discarded.
4. If necessary, remove the entry plate and pull the cable
through the entry holes.
5. Remove the cable insulation to expose the cable screen
at the point of entry (1).
If the outer cable screen is non-conductive:
6. Cut open the cable screen in the middle of the stripped
area (1).
7. Pull the cable screen ends over the cable insulation to
turn the conductive side inside out (2).
8. Connect the screens ends with a continuous conducting
foil (3).
