Symmetrical Variable Frequency Drive Cables

Belden expanded its line of variable frequency drive (VFD) cables that carry power from industrial AC drive systems to AC motors. The product additions include eight symmetrical ground design, three-conductor 16 AWG to 2 AWG VFD cables that support a broad range of installation options and customer requirements including MSHA and UL direct burial approvals. These cables feature a dual copper tape shielding to provide a low resistance path to ground, improving common mode current containment. The dual spirally applied tapes provide improved flexibility and radiated and conducted noise protection. Three symmetrical bare ground wires provide a balanced ground system that reduces AC motor shaft voltage, reducing the likelihood of premature motor bearing or motor insulation failure.
