Abstract

A termination unit for a deposition system, comprising a device for effecting a function, the device comprising at least one component comprising electrical steel, and at least one shielding element which is electrically conductive. The shielding element is configured so: an effect of a neighboring current on the component comprising electrical steel, which is not contributing to the function of the device, is mitigated, wherein this neighboring current has a first topology; and so an effect of at least one neighboring current having a different topology than the first topology is not significantly mitigated. The device moreover comprises a current transfer means neighboring the at least one component comprising electrical steel, and adapted for guiding a current according to the first topology and for transferring power to a target when mounted on the termination unit.
