Parallel Cables from VSD to Motor

Parallel Cables from VSD to Motor

(OP)
Hello world! Long time subscriber, first time poster. Great site and lots of great info. My question is fairly simple but I am trying to get a concrete answer with documented evidence behind it to take it to the powers to be for approval.

Is there a decrease in the maximum distance between VSD and motor with running parallel multicore screened cables to a motor as opposed to a single mutlicore screened cable? ie say 50m for 1x3core 300mm2 reducing to 25m for 2x3core 150mm2...

I know the topic has been discussed several times but does anyone have experience and links to information that I can use in the proposal for the installation output chokes?

Thanks.

The Sponge
