7.4 How to Check Power Components
1) Diode module and IGBT module check (5.5~ 30kW)
Before checking the power components, be sure to disconnect AC Input supply and wait until the Main
Electrolytic Capacitors (DCP-DCN) is discharged.
īŗ Turn the power off and disconnect RST/UVW wiring.
īŗ Determine whether inverter terminals (R,S,T, U, V, W, P1(or P2),N) are energized or not using a tester.
īŗ Wait until the Main Electrolytic Capacitors (DCP-DCN) is discharged to a safe level.
īŗ Enormous amount of value such as Mega will be displayed when Open. When closed, the resistance
value ranges from a few ohms to tens of Ī©. Sometimes, it seems to be closed due to electrolytic
capacitors but soon to be displayed mega value resistance.
īŗ The displayed value is not always the same according to modules and tester types but should be similar.
