A Smarter Way to Control your VFD in CANADA

Tackle CMC Issues in Your Production Line


LAPP’s new ÖLFLEX® VFD 1XLC motor cable is designed for our Canadian market.

  • Robust shielding – reduces Common Mode Current (CMC) more than TECK cables. 
  • c(UL) CIC/TC-ER rating – with “ER” cable rating, drop from tray straight to the motor without conduit. 
  • Lightweight & flexible – smaller bend radius for tight installs. 
  • Lower project costs – less hardware, less labor, less downtime. 
  • XLPE insulation – superior electrical performance & precise motor control. 
  • Oil- & UV-resistant jacket – durable indoors or outdoors. 
  • Available with SIGNAL pair – for integrated control circuits.

Why Canadian Manufacturers Are Switching from TECK cables

In VFD motor systems, CMC can cause electrical noise, tripping devices, bearing pitting, and premature equipment wear. Traditional TECK and corrugated-armor cables allow CMC to return back to the VFD enclosure, resulting in electrical noise. 

ÖLFLEX® VFD 1XLC’s overall triple-layer foil and tinned-copper braid provide a low-impedance path for CMC to return to the VFD, avoiding the detrimental effect of CMC on the system. 

Canadian code typically demands conduit from tray to motor. The TC-ER rating of ÖLFLEX® VFD 1XLC eliminates that conduit requirement, saving both material and labor hours during installation.
With its leaner XLPE-insulated design, LAPP’s cable has a smaller diameter and tighter bend radius than armored TECK, making it ideal for retrofits, confined MCC cabinets, and robotic/automated cells.
Unlike generic VFD cables, ÖLFLEX® VFD 1XLC was engineered for the Canadian market’s code, offering oil & UV resistance and full c(UL) CIC/TC-ER approval.

ÖLFLEX® VFD 1XLC powers Variable Frequency Drive motors across Canadian manufacturing sectors:


  • Pumps – smooth speed control & energy savings 
  • Fans & Blowers – reduced audible noise & longer motor life 
  • Extruders – precise temperature & throughput regulation 
  • Conveyors & Material-Handling Lines – improved uptime & less maintenance 
  • Elevators / Lifts & Hoists – dependable performance in vertical runs 
  • General Factory Automation – where uptime, flexibility, and precision are critical

Break Your Dependence on TECK Cables


Stop wrestling with costly, bulky, TECK cables that do not provide the proper shielding to diminish the effects of CMC. 

TECK cables, and continuously welded and corrugated aluminum armor (CCA), allow CMC to return to the VFD enclosure, resulting in electrical noise at the enclosure. 

Choose the Canadian-approved VFD cable that provides superior protection, efficient installation, and long-term reliability.
