Connect the Kinetix 350 Drive System Chapter 4
Wiring Guidelines
Use these guidelines as a reference when wiring the connectors on your
Kinetix 350 drive power modules.
Follow these steps when wiring the connectors on your Kinetix 350 drive
modules.
1. Prepare the wires for attachment to each connector plug by removing
insulation equal to the recommended strip length.
2. Route the cable/wires to your Kinetix 350 drive.
3. Insert wires into connector plugs.
See connector pinout tables in Chapter 3
or the interconnect diagrams
in Appendix A
.
4. Tighten the connector screws.
5. Gently pull on each wire to make sure it does not come out of its
terminal; reinsert and tighten any loose wires.
6. Insert the connector plug into the module connector.
ATTENTION: To avoid personal injury and/or equipment damage, make sure
that installation complies with specifications regarding wire types,
conductor sizes, branch circuit protection, and disconnect devices. The
National Electrical Code (NEC) and local codes outline provisions for safely
installing electrical equipment.
To avoid personal injury and/or equipment damage, make sure that motor
power connectors are used for only connection purposes. Do not use them to
turn the unit on and off.
To avoid personal injury and/or equipment damage, make sure that shielded
power cables are grounded to prevent potentially high voltages on the shield.
IMPORTANT For connector locations of the Kinetix 350 drives, refer to Kinetix 350 Drive
Connectors and Indicators on page 34.
When you tighten screws to secure the wires, refer to the tables that begin
on page 60
for torque values.
When you remove insulation from wires, refer to the tables that begin on
page 60
for strip lengths.
IMPORTANT To improve system performance, run wires and cables in the wireways as
established in Establish Noise Zones
on page 27.
IMPORTANT Use caution not to nick, cut, or otherwise damage strands as you
remove the insulation.
