Re: VFD or Spindle problems
You size the wire or cable size for the motor amps, not for if it fits in the connector! All you need to do is set a dust tight Junction box on the moving part of the Z carriage, run your proper size flex shielded cable to it, ground the ground wire to the metal Z frame and run a ground wire to the spindle motor bracket or motor its self. Then run a approved flex conduit to the connector for the spindle with the 3 wires for power inside to the motor.
