Motor Power Wiring

The following paragraphs provide details of motor connections. When motor power cables are long, 100ft. [30 m], a

ferrite (Control Techniques p/n 157016-13, Steward p/n 28A3851-0A2 or equivalent) installed on the three phase

conductors but not the shield, near J1 can significantly reduce high frequency switching harmonics that in some

cases can cause communications and encoder errors, see figures below. Maximum cable length is 200 ft [60 m].

With the Epsilon EP202/204/206/209 drive the J1 terminals are suitable for one 18 AWG to 14 AWG or ISO 0,75 to

ISO 2,5 stranded conductors. The Epsilon EP216 drive J1 terminals are suitable for one 16 AWG to 10 AWG or ISO

1,5 to ISO 6 stranded conductors. The ground/shield terminal may contain the shield and ground conductors together

if each is 16 AWG or ISO 0,75 or ISO 1,5. Otherwise a ferrule must be used to crimp both connectors together.
