VFD Cable for Variable Frequency Drives

600V, 1000V, 2000V with XLPE insulation, shielded constructions

VFD cable is engineered to handle high voltage spikes, electrical noise, charging currents, and heat when used between variable frequency drives (VFDs) and motors. NFPA 79 (2018) Section 4.4.2.8 recommends XLPE insulation for VFD applications due to its low capacitance and thermoset performance, helping reduce reflected wave damage and improve system reliability.

Right Hand Industrial helps OEMs and end users select the proper VFD cable from leading manufacturers to meet electrical, mechanical, and environmental requirements.
