#127760 - The RS485 signal lines is galvanically...........
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Kai Said:
The RS485 signal lines is galvanically isolated from the cable shield. There's only a 10nF cap bewteen both ...

Do you mean this
Between both means 485TX---10nf----|Gnd
and 485RX------10nf----|Gnd


But I feel if we ground the shield to Earth at both the ends this would trigger ground loops , But kai says Galvanic Isolation is there this contradicts the above statement .And I feel grounding at both ends is benificial unless Galvanic Isolation is there for powersupply aswell .And we keep Circuit Gnd floating . I think US and EU will meet at this point.


BTW : Andy Neil --- Am I permitted using Gnd and nF as SMS , in the forum :)
