Shielded wiring for locations with interference
In applications where plastic conduit or open wire trays are used, shielded milticonductor
22 gage (0.326 mm
2
) or heavier signal input wiring is required.
Avoiding interference
Instrument wiring is considered Level 1, per section 6.3 of IEEE STD. 518 for plant
facilities layout and instrumentation application. Level 1 wiring must not be run close to
higher level signals such as power lines or drive signals for phase fired SCR systems, etc.
Unprotected input wiring in high electrical noise environments is subject to
electromagnetic, electrostatic, and radio frequency interference pickup of sufficient
magnitude to overload input filters. The best instrument performance is obtained by
keeping the interfering signals out of the instruments altogether by using proper wiring
practices.
