3-Conductor VFD cable with an uninsulated ground

Series V 3-Conductor
VFD Cables
Enhanced Design for Superior Performance
S
eries V cables for variable-frequency drives (VFD) set the standard in high-performance and
reliable connectivity. Their specially formulated cross-linked polyethylene insulation provides
superior corona resistance, low capacitance for longer runs, and excellent low-temperature properties.
The three-conductor cables feature a symmetrical design with the bare copper ground wires placed
in the interstices of the conductors for uniform conductor-to-ground capacitance and impedance.
This uniformity reduces the probability of motor damage from common-mode current.
• R
educed chance of cable failure from voltage
irregularities such as harmonics, corona discharges,
and power distortion
• Reduced diameter for space savings
• Increased flexibility for easier routing and
easier handling
• Symmetrical round design for uniform
electric properties
• L
ow capacitance for improved signal transmission
over longer distances
• O
il-resistant PVC jacket and polyethylene insulation
• D
ouble shielded for maximum EMI protection
• C
ompatible with VFD drives from all
major manufacturers
• Sold in bulk or cut to length
