5.1. CABLE FASTENING AND CABLE SHIELD EARTHING

All the cables must be fastened appropriately to the earthing rail of the device housing (UCR). Cables
with tinned copper wire braid must have the cable shield earthed to the earthing rail of the device
housing. This is important in order to achieve the declared resistance of the device to electromagnetic
interference.
First, the cable shall be fastened. In the case of cables with tinned copper wire braid the cable shield
shall be fastened next. The cable shall be fastened to the lower part of the earthing rail, and the cable
shield to the upper part of the earthing rail of the device. The cable and the braid shall be fastened by
plastic cable ties supplied with the accessories of the SparkEnergy device.
Cable shield shall be earthed in two phases:
 Removal of cable insulation at the place where the cable is to be fastened to the earthing rail
 Cable fastening (at the place without insulation) to the upper part of the earthing rail.
