Re: [Emc-users] Grounding Issues

John,

Do you have an AC filter on the power lines feeding the GS2 drive?

If not, go to Automation Direct and buy the filter they specify for that 
drive.   You will not regret the purchase.

Don't buy a cheap filter.   The ones that AD has now are good filters.   
I've had similar issues.

Dave
