8. For safety reasons, install a thermal overload relay between brake unit and brake resistor.
Together with the magnetic contactor (MC) in the mains supply circuit to the drive it offers
protection in case of any malfunctioning. The purpose of installing the thermal overload relay is
to protect the brake resistor against damage due to frequent brake or in case the brake unit is
continuously on due to unusual high input voltage. Under these circumstances the thermal
overload relay switches off the power to the drive. Never let the thermal overload relay switch
off only the brake resistor as this will cause serious damage to the AC Motor Drive.
