Chapter 5 Connect the Kinetix 5500 Drive System
Ground the Drive System
All equipment and components of a machine or process system must have a
common earth ground point connected to chassis. A grounded system provides
a ground path for protection against electrical shock. Grounding your drives
and panels minimize the shock hazard to personnel and damage to equipment
caused by short circuits, transient overvoltages, and accidental connection of
energized conductors to the equipment chassis.
Ground the System Subpanel
Ground Kinetix 5500 drives and 2198-CAPMOD-1300 capacitor modules to
a bonded cabinet ground bus with a braided ground strap. Keep the braided
ground strap as short as possible for optimum bonding.
Figure 43 - Connecting the Ground Terminal
Refer to the System Design for Control of Electrical Noise Reference Manual,
publication GMC-RM001

ATTENTION: The National Electrical Code contains grounding requirements,
conventions, and definitions. Follow all applicable local codes and
regulations to safely ground your system.
For CE grounding requirements, refer to Agency Compliance
on page 30.
