2.2 Electrical power network
2.2.1 Mains connection and configuration
The frequency inverters of the DC1 series can be connected and operated
with all control-point grounded AC supply systems (see IEC 60364 for more
information in this regard).
Figure 9: AC power networks with earthed center point (TN-/TT networks)
The connection and operation of frequency inverters to asymmetrically
grounded TN networks (phase-grounded Delta network “Grounded Delta“,
USA) or non-grounded or high-resistance grounded (over 30 ) IT networks is
only conditionally permissible.
If DC1 series frequency inverters are connected to an asymmetrically
earthed network or to an IT network (non-earthed, insulated), the internal
radio interference suppression filter must be disconnected (by unscrewing
the screw marked EMC).

While planning the project, consider a symmetrical distribution
to the three main poles, if multiple frequency inverters with sin-
gle-phase supplies are to be connected. The total current of all
single phase consumers is not to cause an overload of the neu-
tral conductor (N-conductor).

Operation on non-earthed networks (IT) requires the use of suit-
able insulation monitors (e.g. pulse-code measurement method)
→
In networks with an earthed main pole, the maximum phase-
earth voltage must not exceed 300 V AC.
