Application

Variable Frequency Drives: 3-conductor CCW armored cables with three symmetrical grounding wires are the preferred wiring method for use with AC motors controlled by pulse-width modulated inverters in VFD applications. For use in Class I, II and III, Divisions 1 and 2; or Class 1, Zones 1 and 2 hazardous locations per NEC Articles 501, 502, 503 and 505. For installation on metal racks, troughs, in raceways and cable trays, or secured to supports not more than six feet apart. For exposed and concealed work in wet or dry locations, directly buried or embedded in concrete. For use on feeders and branch circuits in industrial power distribution systems per NEC Articles 328 and 330.
