It's a cabling accessory that lets you bring motor and control wiring in from above the cabinet rather than through the bottom or side, which matters when the enclosure is set tight against a wall or on a raised plinth where bottom access is blocked. This part was built for the Altivar 71 Plus, Altivar 61 Plus, Altivar 61 Plus-LH, and Altivar 71 Plus-LH drive families. If you're maintaining one of those cabinets and the original top-entry plate is missing or damaged, this is the factory-correct replacement — no panel modification or adapter plate needed. ## Lifecycle reality — obsolete, but findable If your BOM calls for the VW3AE0706, the practical move is to source what's left in the surplus channel rather than redesign the cabinet entry. ## What to expect when you get it This is a mechanical accessory — a gland plate that bolts onto the top of the Altivar floor-standing enclosure. It's not a powered component, so there's no wiring, no coil, no electronics to fail. The condition you care about is whether the gasket is intact and the mounting holes line up with the existing studs on the cabinet roof. If you're sourcing a used or surplus unit, check that the plate isn't warped and that the cable-entry knockouts or cutouts match your conduit/cable diameter. A bent plate won't seal against the enclosure gasket, which defeats the IP protection of the cabinet.","metaTitle":"VW3AE0706 Cable Entry Top, Altivar Floor-Standing Enclosure,","metaDescription":"VW3AE0706 cable entry via the top for Altivar floor-standing enclosures (71 Plus, 61 Plus).
