ATTENTION: To avoid shock hazard or personal injury, make sure
that all power has been removed before proceeding. This system can
have multiple sources of power. More than one disconnect switch
can be required to de-energize the system.
SHOCK HAZARD: This product contains stored energy devices. To
avoid the hazard of electrical shock, verify that voltage on capacitors
has been discharged before attempting to service, repair, or remove
this unit. Do not attempt the procedures in this document unless you
are qualified to do so and are familiar with solid-state control
equipment and the safety procedures in publication NFPA 70E.
TIP You do not need to remove the shunt (RC) connector, unless there is
an external shunt wired to it.
IMPORTANT DC bus T-connectors latch on both sides when inserted into the
drive. To remove the DC bus T-connector, at least one latch must be
pried away with a non-conductive probe.
