(1) SCu = copper or aluminum external shielding.
(2) AFe = galvanized steel or iron.
(3) PE = ground conductor.
(4) Cable shielding must be grounded at both ends (inverter and motor). Use 360º connections for low impedance to high frequencies.
(5) For using the shield as a protective ground, it must have at least 50 % of the power cables conductivity. Otherwise, add an external ground
conductor and use the shield as an EMC protection.
(6) Shielding conductivity at high frequencies must be at least 10 % of the phase power cable conductivity.
