Guidelines on Functional Bonding and Shielding of PROFIBUS and PROFINET

This document deals with the shielding of PROFIBUS and PROFINET networks and with equipotential bonding in in non-hazardous areas. The document describes an optimized structure intended to reduce the effects of EMI and disturbances by using equipotential bonding systems. In a tiered approach, readers are first made familiar with the technical basics of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), equipotential bonding and shielding. In later sections, six recommendations for action are developed by using a plant example.
