General Mach Discussion / How do you Connect the Metal Braiding of a Cable?
« on: November 29, 2013, 10:07:26 AM »
I'm wiring my four stepper motors 18AWG shielded cables and I want to know how I ground physically the cable shields at the panel end.
When I cut the exterior plastic shell of each cable, there is under it the metal braiding and after there is the aluminum foil; do I ground only the braiding, the foil, both?
And how do you do this physically? Do I solder a piece of wire to the braiding / foil ?
Thanks
