Installation/Wiring

Shield Termination - TE (True Earth)

The TE terminal block (not available on A Frame drives) is used for
all cable shields at the drive. It must be connected to an earth ground
by a separate continuous lead. TE connections may exist on power
and/or control terminal blocks to terminate shield cables for both
power and control. Refer to

Figure 2.1

for locations.

Safety Ground - PE (Potential Earth)

This is the safety ground required by code. This point must be con-
nected to adjacent building steel (girder, joist) or a floor ground rod,
provided grounding points comply with national or local electric code
regulations. If a cabinet ground bus is used, refer to Grounding on
page

RFI Filter

Important:

Using an optional RFI filter may result in relatively high
ground leakage currents. Surge suppression devices are
also incorporated in the filter. Therefore, the filter must
be permanently installed and solidly grounded to the
supply neutral. Grounding must not rely on flexible cables
and should not include any form of plug or socket that
would permit inadvertent disconnection. The integrity of
this connection should be periodically checked.
