2.3 Post-Installation Checklist
After completing the installation, check the items in the following table to make sure that the
inverter has been safely and correctly installed.
Installation
Location/Power
I/O Verification
Is the installation location appropriate?
Does the environment meet the inverter’s operating
conditions?
Does the power source match the inverter’s rated input?
Is the inverter’s rated output sufficient to supply the
equipment?
(Degraded performance will result in certain
circumstances. Refer to 11.8 Continuous Rated Current
Derating on page 431 for details.
Is a circuit breaker installed on the input side of the
inverter?
Is the circuit breaker correctly rated?
Are the power source cables correctly connected to the
R/S/T terminals of the inverter?
(Caution: connecting the power source to the U/V/W
terminals may damage the inverter.)
Are the motor output cables connected in the correct
phase rotation (U/V/W)?
(Caution: motors will rotate in reverse direction if three
phase cables are not wired in the correct rotation.)
Are the cables used in the power terminal connections
correctly rated?
Is the inverter grounded correctly?
Are the power terminal screws and the ground terminal
screws tightened to their specified torques?
Are the overload protection circuits installed correctly
on the motors (if multiple motors are run using one
inverter)?
Is the inverter separated from the power source by a
magnetic contactor (if a braking resistor is in use)?
Are advanced-phase capacitors, surge protection and
electromagnetic interference filters installed correctly?
(These devices MUST not be installed on the output side
of the inverter.)
Are STP (shielded twisted pair) cables used for control
terminal wiring?
Is the shielding of the STP wiring properly grounded?
If 3-wire operation is required, are the multi-function
input terminals defined prior to the installation of the
control wiring connections?
