Nexans AmerCable VFD Cables are specially engineered to provide 0% containment of EMI emissions and provide longer cable life in VFD applications. Nexans AmerCable VFD cables feature symmetrical insulated ground conductors that reduce induced voltage imbalances and carry common mode noise back to the drive. Nexans AmerCable s high strand count conductors and braid shield design is much more flexible, easier to install and more resistant to vibration than Type MC cable.

Note: For armored versions the braid is placed between the inner jacket and outer sheath where it serves as both the EMI shield and armor. Application A flexible, braid and foil shielded, 2kV power cable specifically engineered for use in variable frequency AC motor drive (VFD) applications. Features n Specially engineered cable design produces a longer cable life in VFD applications. n Overall braid plus foil shield is engineered with 0% coverage and a surface transfer impedance <50 milliohms at MHz to contain EMI. n Symmetrical insulated ground conductors reduce induced voltage imbalances and carry common mode noise back to the drive. n High strand count conductors and braid shield design is much more flexible, easier to install and more resistant to vibration than Type MC cable. n Gexol s lower dielectric constant (standard XLPEs, EPRs and other Type P insulation materials have higher dielectric constants) reduces reflected wave peak voltage magnitudes. This allows for longer output cable distances and minimizes the effect of high frequency noise induced into the plant ground system. n 2kV insulation thickness is used to resist the potential 2-3x reflected voltages experienced in 00V VFD applications. n Dual certified IEEE 150 Type P and UL 1309/CSA 25 Type X1. n Highest ampacity ratings: ABS 0 C, DNV 95 C, LRS 95 C, Transport Canada 95 C. n Severe cold durability: exceeds CSA cold bend/cold impact (-0 C/-35 C). n Flame retardant: IEC 332-3 Category A and IEEE 1202. n Suitable for use in Class I, Division 1 and Zone 1 environments (armored and sheathed). n Optional braid armor of bronze, aluminum or tinned copper. 2 Manufactured by Nexans AmerCable 00-50-973 713-9-500 Fax: 713-9-9009

This jacket allows for isolation between the insulation shields and overall shield. Shields can then be terminated on opposite ends to minimize circulating currents. Armor/EMI Shield Overall tinned copper braid plus aluminum/ polyester tape provides 0% coverage. This braid serves as both an armor and EMI shield meeting both IEEE 150 and UL 1307/CSA 25. Sheath (optional) A black, arctic grade, flame retardant, oil, abrasion, chemical and sunlight resistant thermosetting compound meeting UL 1309/CSA 25, IEEE 150, and UL 72. Colored jackets for signifying different voltage levels are also available on special request (orange = kv and red = 15kV).

Cable Selection Guide for VFD Applications The circuit of a typical voltage source PWM drive is shown in Figure 1. Each part of the equipment is bonded to the safety earth system to ensure personnel safety if faults occur. All parts have capacitance to ground shown by: CM for the motor windings. CC1 and CC2 for the power converter circuits. CT for the transformer s secondary winding to the transformers screen. The IGBT switches are in constant operation at high frequency and this produces an inverter output voltage with a PWM wave shape as shown by the voltage V1(Figure 1). This IGBT switches also cause a motor line to ground voltage V2 (Figure 1), normally called a common mode voltage. Transformer Shield Earth Bond CT Inverter Line to Line Voltage V1 l2 Power Converter Diodes IGBT Switches CC1 Earth Bond Safety Earth System Motor Ground Current I1 The common mode voltages cause short high-frequency pulses of common F I G U R E 1 mode current to flow in the safety earth circuits, shown by currents I1 and I2 (Figure 1), unless the design includes cable features to stop this from happening. CC2 l1 V1 V2 Motor CM Earth Bond Motor Line to Ground Voltage V2 It is essential that the common mode currents return to the inverter without causing EMC - EMI problems in other equipment, and this means that the common mode currents I1 and I2 must not flow in the safety earthing system. For the motor, this is achieved by connecting a set of wires from the motor to the inverter that run with the main power cables. These are called symmetrical insulated grounding conductors, see Figure 2. These conductors have a very low impedance compared with the other return path via the safety earthing system. The three symmetrical insulated grounding conductors and overall shields are connected as shown in Figure 3. This 30 connection is essential. Insulated Grounding Conductor Connection Ring The common mode currents I1 and I2 now flow in the symmetrical insulated grounding conductors. This happens because the symmetrical insulated grounding conductors are close to the power conductors giving a low impedance route for the currents I1 and I2 compared with the safety earthing system. As I1 and I2 flow near the power conductors this avoids creating external EMC - EMI problems.

Cable Selection Guide for VFD Applications If symmetrical insulated grounding conductors and an overall EMI shield are not used, EMC - EMI problems are very likely to occur. For cables used with voltage source PWM drives, a number of features are required to ensure correct operation, avoid overheating and achieve longer service life. Shield Transformer CT Earth Bond l2 Power Converter CC1 Inverter CC2 Earth Bond Safety Earth System The essential features of a F I G U R E 2 medium voltage cable for PWM drives are: Insulation designed to withstand the transients produced by the PWM Insulation with a dielectric constant no greater than 3.0 to minimize capacitance Voltage rating of 3x the operating voltage to prevent corona Three symmetrical insulated grounding conductors. Some cables only have one grounding conductor. This is not acceptable as it produces circulating currents in the earth system Extremely fine strands to carry the harmonic currents without overheating (i.e. the inductance of fine stranded conductors is less than 7, 19, 37 strand conductors) Overall shield to stop the radiation of voltage EMI fields Correct termination at both ends Semi-conducting shield around each insulation layer Metallic layer around each semi-conducting shield to earth the semi-conducting shield Grounding Conductors l1 Motor CM Earth Bond www.nexansamercable.com e-mail: marine@amercable.com 13
