Abstract

There are ongoing debates as to the number of grounding points for control cable shields. These debates arise in various specialized forums (in different languages) and on the pages of professional journals. Why? Perhaps, the reason is that the practical experience of equipment use goes beyond theoretical speculation. Sometimes the best results are obtained in the case of unilateral grounding of shields. However, there are situations when bilateral grounding of shields does a better job. This article discusses the reasons for these controversies and describes one of the new approaches to grounding of the shields.
