EMI radiation from cables
EMI radiation from cables
(OP)
Hi Guys,
I have am trying to minimise the EMI radiation from cables carrying power to magnetic coils.
I have read that shielded twisted pair cables with a drain wire where both the drain and the shield are connected to ground is the best approach - is this the case?
What types of connectors are best to use?
This voltage will be up to 25V and the current as high as 10A.
Thanks in advance,
Joe

Especially if the load is a set of coils anyway...

So long as the frequency is low, then the tightness of the twist isn't critical.

and do not overtwist. I just made some this morning.
Run drill CW for use in the Northern hemisphere, CCW for the Southern.

Can I use your cable in the Equator? Do I need an 'Equator interface'?
