LV216: Shielding & High-Voltage

The German automotive standard LV216 specifically targets high-voltage shielded cables.

Coverage: %

Transfer Impedance

LV216 specifies transfer impedance limits usually < 10 mOhm/m at 2 MHz. This ensures inverter switching frequencies do not radiate.

Dated Figures

As of the 2021 revision, foil+braid combinations are heavily scrutinized for flexural endurance under 100,000 bending cycles.

FAQ

Q: Can we use unshielded cables under LV216?
A: No. By definition, LV216 applies to shielded HV cables for electric drive applications.
