Question: The 4-20 mA signal my PLCs operate on is in a very noisy enviornment. The noise is primarily due to large magnetic fields. The first and best thing to reduce this noise I can think of is to use shielded wire.
What I'm looking for is there a best kind of shielding? ground or unground it?
Does having the wire be a twisted pair improve the signal? how tightly twisted?
Has anyone had particular success in this kind of situation? what manufacture for the wire did you use?
Thanks!
