Over-current during 
steady operation   
(ocn) 
Output current exceeds 2.4 times of the 
during constant speed. 
When ocn occurs, the drive closes the gate of the output
immediately,  the  motor run
s freely, and the display 
shows an ocn fault. 
Action and Reset 
Action condition  240% of rated current 
Action time  Act immediately 
Fault treatment parameter  N/A 
Reset method  Manual reset 
Reset condition  Reset in 5 sec. after the fault is cleared 
Record  Yes 
Cause  Corrective Actions 
Short-circuit at motor output due to
poor insulation wiring 
Check 
the motor cable and remove causes of the short circuits, or replace the 
cable before turning on the power. 
Check for possible shaft lock, 
burnout or aging insulation of the 
motor 
Troubleshoot the motor shaft lock. 
Check the motor insulation value with megger. Replace th
e motor if the insulation 
is poor.   
Impulsive change of the load  Reduce the load or increase the capacity of AC motor drive. 
Use special motor or motor with 
larger capacity than the drive 
Check motor capacity (the rated current on the motor’s nameplate should ≤ 
rated current of the drive)   
Use ON/OFF controller of an 
electromagnetic contactor at the 
output (U/V/W) of the drive 
Check the action timing of the contactor and make sure it is not turned ON / 
when the drive outputs the voltage.   
V/F curve setting fault 
Adjust 
V/F curve settings and frequency/voltage. When the fault occurs, and the 
frequency voltage is too high, reduce the voltage.   
Over-torque offset value too high 
Adjust over-torque offset value (Refer to Pr.07-26 
torque compensation gain), 
until the output current is reduced and not motor stall.   
Torque compensation is too large. 
Adjust the torque compensation (refer to Pr.07-26 
torque compensation gain) 
until the output current reduces and the motor does not stall.   
Malfunction caused by 
interference 
Verify the wiring of the control circuit and wiring/grounding of the main circuit 
prevent interference.   
The length of motor cable is too 
long 
Increase the AC motor drive’s capacity. 
Install AC reactor(s) on the output side (U/V/W). 
Hardware failure 
The ocn occurs due to short circuit or ground fault at the output side of the drive.
Check for possible short circuit between terminals with the electric meter: 
B1 corresponds to U, V, W; DC- corresponds to U, V, W; 
 
V, W. 
If short circuits occur, return to the factory for repair.
