When is a AC line filter needed or not needed? The motor is a 5 Amp 480 V servo motor on an 11Amp servo drive. There will be about 50 feet of cable between the drive an motor. The servo will be making about 1 or 2 trapezoidal moves per min. We have lots of servos, and non of them have line filters on them, or if they do they are part of the drive hardware. This one is an Allen Bradley, and our distributor recommended them as a part of a complete package, but I wanted to know what they are for, and if we need them.
