104 ACH580 Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual
ACH580 E-Clipse Bypass
Branch circuit protection
Input power is connected to the ACH580 with E-Clipse Bypass through a door 
interlocked disconnect switch or circuit breaker. Neither of these inputs are fused. 
The branch circuit that provides power to the ACH580 with E-Clipse Bypass with 
disconnect switch must include the specified external fuses to provide short circuit 
and ground fault protection for the motor in the bypass mode.
When connected to a 240V or 480V power source, the ACH580 with E-Clipse 
Bypass with the circuit breaker option is suitable for use on a circuit capable of 
delivering not more than 100,000 RMS symmetrical amperes. When connected 
to a 600V power source ABB E-Clipse units provided with a circuit breaker, 
VCR and BCR configurations, are suitable for use on a circuit capable of 
delivering not more than 10,000 RMS symmetrical amperes.
Fuses
Note: The UL listed drive fuses in the table are provided in the purchased product. 
• Replacement fuses are required to be of the same class, current rating, and 
voltage rating. Fuses from other manufacturers can be used if they are 600V 
rated and meet the specifications given in the table. 
• Fuses with higher current rating than specified must not be used.
