Noise Related Grounds

Use appropriate grounding schemes to reduce noise when installing PWM AC
drives to reduce output that can produce high frequency common mode
(coupled from output to ground) noise currents. These noise currents can cause
sensitive equipment to malfunction if they are allowed to propagate.
