Connecting the earth leakage breaker
Install an earth leakage breaker to the AC power line to protect the primary circuit.
Recommended device Mitsubishi Electric Corporation: NV series
Connecting the fuse
Be sure to connect a fuse or similar device in the AC power line to protect against overcurrent.
Fuse rating
Single-phase 100/110/115 V 216 Series (Littelfuse,Inc.) 10 A or equivalent
Single-phase 200/220/230 V 216 Series (Littelfuse,Inc.) 6.3 A or equivalent
5.3 Connecting the motor and speed controller
Connect the motor cable connector to the CN3 on the speed controller.
Use a connection cable (supplied or accessory) when extending the wiring distance between the motor and speed
controller. The connection cable can be connected up to 3 pieces. The wiring distance between the motor and speed
controller can be extended to a maximum of 10.5 m (34.4 ft.).
Flexible connection cables are also available as accessories.
Note
Ensure that the connector plugged in securely. Insecure connection may cause malfunction or
damage to the motor or speed controller.
