Figure 2-4 Single Regen, multiple motoring system using a Unidrive M rectifier
For a single Regen and multiple motoring drive arrangement optional charging circuits can be used for the increased inrush current generated by the
additional capacitance of the multiple motoring drives. The charging circuit can consist of either a Unidrive M rectifier module or an external softstart
resistor as detailed in Chapter 4 System design on page 40.
