    Solid or stranded wire for motors on VFD's

    Thanks to all for the help. My understanding now is that the stranded wire is much better because it carries the RF current better and requires less current to drive the wire and therefore is more efficient. Wow who would have though there is so much detail in just type of wire. Appreciate...

    Solid or stranded wire for motors on VFD's

    Does it matter if the wire feeding a motor from a VFD is stranded or not. I would think the more strands the better. This is relative to the same wire gauge for comparison. The stranding gives more paths for the current to flow so the theory goes. thanks

    pcb mountable shield

    Thanks for the replies. I really need a pre made gadget that is simple to install. Alternatively i have decided to just re-layout the area of the board and hope for the best. Its not an RF product but does have some sensitive low power signal measurements. thanks
