Installation Requirements
38 H-Max Series Adjustable Frequency Drive    MN04008005E—September 2011    
Checking the Cable and Motor Insulation
1. Check the motor cable insulation as follows:
●
Disconnect the motor cable from terminals U, V and W 
of the H-Max Series drive and from the motor
●
Measure the insulation resistance of the motor cable 
between each phase conductor as well as between 
each phase conductor and the protective ground 
conductor
●
The insulation resistance must be >1 mohm
2. Check the input power cable insulation as follows:
●
Disconnect the input power cable from terminals L1, L2 
and L3 of the H-Max Series drive and from the utility line 
feeder
●
Measure the insulation resistance of the input power 
cable between each phase conductor as well as 
between each phase conductor and the protective 
ground conductor
●
The insulation resistance must be >1 mohm
3. Check the motor insulation as follows:
●
Disconnect the motor cable from the motor and open 
any bridging connections in the motor connection box
●
Measure the insulation resistance of each motor 
winding. The measurement voltage must equal at least 
the motor nominal voltage but not exceed 1000V
●
The insulation resistance must be >1 mohm
