Installation
Main frame
The best grounding is achieved when the main frame of each electric device is directly connected to the ground. If this is not possible, the electric device must be grounded at least from one of the safety grounding points with an appropriate grounding cable. For good functional grounding use wide flat grounding braid. Round grounding wires are adequate for safety grounding but it does not provide very good functional grounding because of its higher impedance at high frequencies. The grounding points are marked to the electric device.
There are two marked safety grounding points, however, any of the mounting points can be used for grounding.
Grounding points
1. Grounding connection: M8 hole. Refer to Main dimension drawing if necessary.
Safety grounding points and protective earth conductor
Touch current in the protective earth conductor exceeds 3,5 mA AC and 10 mA DC.
The cross sectional area of the protective earth conductor must be at least equal to that of the incoming supply conductor.
One of the safety grounding points must be connected to adjacent building steel (girder, joist), a floor ground rod, or bus bar. Grounding points must comply with national and local industrial safety regulations and/or electrical codes.
Cabling and wiring
To make sure that the electric device functions correctly and to minimize the radiated emissions, all connected cables and wires must be EMC-shielded. Shieldings must be connected to the ground at both ends of the cable or wire. All power connections must be secured with cable lugs and cable glands. EMC­shielded cable glands are used in all Danfoss products for the power connections. Make sure that the low voltage cable (control signal cable) shield is also grounded from the both ends.

All electrical connections must be done according to instructions. It is essential to make sure that all terminal connections are installed properly and the and the intended application is suitable for the product in terms of electrical requirements/characteristics.
The cable harness for electric connections needs to be terminated with cable lugs and cable glands. It is recommended to use IP67/68 rated, 360º shielded cable glands and single core automotive rated screened cable.
The cable gland has three functions, it works as a stress relief, it seals the connection against water and dirt and provides appropriate EMI shielding. Advanced cable glands could achieve high EMI attenuation over a wide frequency range.
The cable lug and cable gland must be assembled according to instructions. For correct assembly of the cable gland, it is recommended to use a torque key with a turnkey head and a key to adapt the cable gland. The cable lug is connected to terminal with a M8 screw. Shielding of the power cable must be connected to the electric device body by the cable gland. Recommendations for the tightening torques must be followed. See the manufacturer's instructions on how to install the cable glands and the cable lugs. The following instructions may not apply to every type of connection this electric device has.
