4      Electrical installation
Many cable management features have been incorporated into the 
product and accessories, this chapter shows how to optimize them. Key 
features include:
• EMC compliance 
• Product rating, fusing and cabling information
• External suppressor resistor details (selection / ratings)
Electric shock risk
The voltages present in the following locations can cause 
severe electric shock and may be lethal:
• AC supply cables and connections
• DC cables, and connections
• Many internal parts of the drive, and external option units
Unless otherwise indicated, control terminals are single 
insulated and must not be touched.
Isolation device 
The AC supply must be disconnected from the drive using 
an approved isolation device before any cover is removed 
from the drive or before any servicing work is performed.
STOP function
The STOP function does not remove dangerous voltages 
from the drive, the motor or any external option units.
Drives are suitable for use on supplies of installation 
category III and lower, according to IEC 60664-1. This 
means they may be connected permanently to the supply at 
its origin in a building, but for outdoor installation additional 
over-voltage suppression (transient voltage surge 
suppression) must be provided to reduce category IV to 
category III.
