We are going to have to change out some very old drives we have and the integrator needs to know the lead lenth from the drive to the motor to decide what stuff we need on the output side.
They say the lead length makes a difference in using sine filters, load reactors, Chokes, DV/DT filters, Reflected Voltage Traps,
I have no idea which of these methods are best. Is therea tool we can buy to measure the lead length as there are lots of them and parts are in conduit and some in cable tray and difficult to get to to measure in any manual way.
Is there a way to measure them with a meter when we have a shutdown day and find out the length? This is armored tray cable going to the motors now but it will be replaced with VFD cable.
Any good way I can take these measurements?
