AC Output Reactor
When using drives in long wiring output application, ground fault (GFF), over-current (OC) and
motor over-voltage (OV) often occur. GFF and OC cause errors due to the drives self -protective
mechanism; over-voltage damages motor insulation.
The excessive length of the output wires makes the grounded stray capacitance too large, increase
the three-phase output common mode current, and the reflected wave of the long wires makes the motor
dv / dt and the motor terminal voltage too high. Thus, installing a reactor on the drive’s output side can
increases the high-frequency impedance to reduce the dv / dt and terminal voltage to protect the motor.
Installation
Install an AC output reactor in series between the three output phases U V W and the motor, as shown
in the figure below:
