Routing High and Low Voltage Cables

Be aware that when you connect and route power and signal wiring
on a machine or system, radiated noise from nearby relays (relay coils
should have surge suppressors), transformers, and other electronic
drives can be induced into motor or encoder feedback,
communications, or other sensitive, low voltage signals. This can
cause system faults and communication problems. To minimize the
levels of radiated noise, route machine power and signal lines
separately.

Always separate all low voltage signal wiring

from high voltage power wiring to reduce affects

of EMI and RFI.
