This raises the RF resistance of the shield and radiates rather than discharges the RF energy
traveling on the shield. Shields, particularly those on control cables, must not be routed through
pin contacts (plug connectors).

uninterrupted whenever possible.

designed for operation at the frequencies and power levels involved. Improper selection of
motor cable can cause high potential to exist on the shield. This could cause damage to the
inverter and other equipment and could pose a safety hazard.
