Japanese Guideline for Suppressing Harmonics in Home Electric and
General-purpose Appliances
Fuji three-phase, 200 V series inverters of 3.7 (4.0) kW or less (FRENIC-Mini series) are the
products specified in the "Japanese Guideline for Suppressing Harmonics in Home Electric and
General-purpose Appliances" (established in September 1994 and revised in October 1999),
published by the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (currently the Ministry of Economy,
Trade and Industry (METI)). The Japan Electrical Manufacturers' Association (JEMA) has
established a standard of regulation levels based on this guideline. To meet this standard, a reactor
(for harmonic suppression) must be connected to an inverter. It is recommended that you use one of
the DC reactors listed in this manual. If you choose to prepare a reactor other than the ones listed,
however, it is suggested that you consult your Fuji Electric representative for the specifications.
