3.2 EMC Cabling and Earthing
To meet the EC Directive for EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility), it is recommended that the meter be connected using
a suitable instrumentation cable and earthed through the meter body and pipework. The instrumentation cable should
have an individual screen, foil or braid over each twisted pair and an overall screen to cover all cores. Where permissible,
the screen should be connected to earth at both ends. Note that for intrinsic safety, termination of the screen to earth in
the hazardous area is NOT generally permitted.
Typical cables that are suitable are those that meet BS5308 Multi-pair Instrumentation Types 1 and 2, such as Belden
types 9500, 9873, 9874, 9773, 9774 etc.
