When specifying cable systems for variable frequency drive (VFD) applications, it is important to select an electrically balanced, copper tape shielded cable with XLPE insulation. This design will reduce EMI, provide a low impedance return path, and reliably withstand high voltage spikes.

Metal-clad (MC) cable constructions are a cost-effective alternative to traditional pipe and wire. These high-performing solutions offer significant cost savings by eliminating the need for electrical conduit and the labor required for installation. Contractors who use MC cable require limited pulling equipment, fewer reels, and less time setting up pulls.

The latest version of NFPA 79 establishes very specific wire and cable requirements for variable frequency drive (VFD) applications. NFPA 79 now discourages the use of thermoplastic insulation and encourages the use of thermoset insulations; requires tray rated products listed to UL 1277/2277; and calls for multiple grounds, proper shielding, and proper shield termination.

ISO 9001:2015 focuses on inflection, allowing companies to improve processes, anticipate unforeseen circumstances, and maintain and improve product quality. The revised standard includes an updated structure compatible with other ISO standards; use of the PDCA cycle, a continuous model focused on systematic improvement; and an increased prominence on risk-based thinking.
