Selection Considerations Chapter 1
See Table 3 to assist with modifying the existing installation and as a guide to 
required power conditioning options for the PowerFlex 755TM bus supply. 
This table only refers to power conditioning. There are also considerations for 
the types of common bus inverters that are compatible. For more information, 
refer to Drives in Common Bus Configuration with PowerFlex 755TM Bus 
Supplies application techniques, publication DRIVES-AT005
 for common 
bus inverter drive compatibility.

PowerFlex 755TM Bus Supply Considerations
Wye secondary, X0 solid ground • Remove external DC Bus Conditioner unit(s).
• Remove Common Mode Choke at the DC output of the 
AFE.
• Remove Common Mode Chokes at the DC input to 
common bus inverter drives.
• Retain Common Mode Chokes at the AC output of the 
common bus inverter drives.
• DC Bus Conditioner included as required.
• Confirm if external DC bus capacitor banks are 
required and of the correct value. Remove/add/
modify per publication DRIVES-AT005
.
• Retain or install Common Mode Chokes at the AC 
output of PowerFlex 750-series common bus inverter 
as recommended in publication DRIVES-AT005.
• Power Filter Jumpers; PE-A/PE-A1/PE-A2, and PE-B1 
jumpers installed per publication 750-IN100.
Wye secondary, X0 resistance grounded with ground 
fault indicator
• Remove the external DC Bus Conditioner unit(s).
• Remove the Common Mode Choke at the DC output of 
the AFE.
• Remove Common Mode Chokes at the DC input to 
common bus inverter drives.
• Retain Common Mode Chokes at the AC output of the 
common bus inverter drives. 
• Specify power option code (–P50) DC Bus Conditioner. 
The bus supply is factory-shipped with the DC Bus 
Conditioner(s) installed within the enclosure.
• Confirm if external DC bus capacitor banks are 
required and of the correct value. Remove/add/
modify per publication DRIVES-AT005.
• Retain or install Common Mode Chokes at the AC 
output of PowerFlex 750-series common bus inverter 
as recommended in publication DRIVES-AT005.
• Power filter jumpers; PE-A/PE-A1/PE-A2, and PE-B1 
jumpers must be set per publication 750-IN100.
Delta secondary, ungrounded with artificial ground (zig-
zag) transformer and ground fault indicator
• Remove the external DC Bus Conditioner unit(s).
• Remove the Common Mode Choke at the DC output of 
the AFE.

common bus inverter drives.
• Retain Common Mode Chokes at the AC output of the 
common bus inverter drives.
• Specify power option code (–P50) DC Bus Conditioner. 
The bus supply is factory shipped with the DC Bus 
Conditioner(s) installed within the enclosure.
• Confirm if external DC bus capacitor banks are 
required and of the correct value. Remove/add/
modify per publication DRIVES-AT005.
• Retain or install Common Mode Chokes at the AC 
output of PowerFlex 750-series common bus inverter 
as recommended in publication DRIVES-AT005.
