Maintenance and Inspection Section 6-4
6-4-3 IGBT Test Method
The following procedure will check the inverter transistors (IGBTs) and
diodes:
1. Disconnect input power to terminals [R, S, and T] and motor terminals
[U, V, and W].
2. Disconnect any wires from terminals [+] and [-] for regenerative braking.
3. Use a Digital Volt Meter (DVM) and set it for 1 Ω resistance range.
You can check the status of the charging state of terminals [R, S, T, U, V,
W, +, and –] of the inverter and the probe of the DVM by measuring the
charging state.
Table Legend
Almost infinite resistance: ≅hΩ Almost zero resistance: ≅0Ω
Note The resistance values for the diodes or the transistors will not be exactly the
same, but they will be close. If you find a significance difference, a problem
may exist.
Note Before measuring the voltage between [+] and [–] with the DC current range,
confirm that the smoothing capacitor is discharged fully, then execute the
tests.
