Should I ground the shield of the cable at each fieldbus device?

Each cable that connects to a fieldbus device (transmitter) MUST NOT have the shield of that cable connected to ground at the device. The shield of the cable at the device (transmitter) is trimmed and covered with insulating tape or heat shrinkable tubing. This is to prevent ground loop currents from occurring within the segment.

The only "ground" that occurs on the segment is the one that is chosen by the system architect, usually at the control room Fieldbus Power Conditioner. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
