III. RECONDITIONING THE BUS CAPACITORS
It is recommended that the bus capacitors be reconditioned if this product has been
in storage for over one year. To recondition the capacitors, apply the AC line, with
the drive in the Stop Mode, for a minimum of one hour.
IV. TERMINAL BLOCKS TM1 and TM3 WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
(Power Connections)
WARNING! Read Safety
Warning, on page 6, before
using this drive. Disconnect the main power
when making connections to the drive.
For Terminal Block TM1 wiring
information, see Table 4 on
page 17.
IMPORTANT
APPLICATION NOTES:
1. To Avoid False Tripping –
Do not bundle motor wires
from multiple drives in the
same conduit. Do
not bundle the AC
line with motor
wires. (Note: AC
power to multiple
drives can be run in
the same conduit.)
Be sure at least
300V rated wiring is
used on 115-230 Volt
AC models and 600V
rated wiring is used
on 460 Volt AC models. Recommended insulation type is “XLPE”. Do not use
type “THHN”. If motor wires exceed 100 feet (30 m), a Load Reactor may be
required. (Do not use insulation type “THHN”.) See Section X-H, Table 22, on
page 54. The 3-phase input voltage imbalance must be less than 3%.
2. To Avoid Erratic Operation – Do not bundle signal wires (start/stop, frequen-
cy control, etc.) with AC line or motor wires. Use shielded cables on signal
wiring over 12” (30 cm). The shield should be Earth grounded on the drive side
only. Wire the drive in accordance with the National Electrical Code and other
local codes that may apply. See Figures 3A, 3B, and 3C, on page 18.
Be sure to properly fuse each AC line conductor that is not at ground poten-
