11.13 Surge Suppression Units (SSU)
If the drive cable for the motor is long, an extremely small amount of surge voltage
(micro surge) will be generated at the motor connection end.
Surge voltage can cause problems such as motor degradation, dielectric
breakdown, or increased noise.
Surge suppression units can suppress surge voltage.
Surge suppression units can be connected regardless of the inverter capacity, and
wiring work can be carried out easily.
