1.
Do the steps in section Electrical safety precautions (page 22) before you start the
work.
2. Make sure that the motor cable is disconnected from the drive output terminals.
3. Measure the insulation resistance between each phase conductor and the protective
earth conductor. Use a measuring voltage of 1000 V DC. The insulation resistance
of an ABB motor must be more than 100 Mohm (reference value at 25 °C [77 °F]).
For the insulation resistance of other motors, refer to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Note: Moisture inside the motor reduces the insulation resistance. If you think that
there is moisture in the motor, dry the motor and do the measurement again.

WARNING!
Obey the safety instructions of the drive. If you ignore them, injury or death,
or damage to the equipment can occur. If you are not a qualified electrical
professional, do not do installation, commissioning or maintenance work.
1.
Stop the drive and do the steps in section Electrical safety precautions (page 22)
before you start the work.
2. Make sure that the resistor cable is connected to the resistor and disconnected from
the drive output terminals.
3. At the drive end, connect the R+ and R- conductors of the resistor cable together.
Measure the insulation resistance between the conductors and the PE conductor
with a measuring voltage of 1000 V DC. The insulation resistance must be more
than 1 Mohm.
