Chapter 5 Power Wiring
To connect or disconnect these devices, see the jumper locations that are 
shown in Figure 47 on page 79
 through Figure 53 on page 83.
In addition, on an ungrounded distribution system where the line-to-ground 
voltages on any phase could exceed 125% of the nominal line-to-line voltage, 
install an isolation transformer. See Wiring and Grounding Guidelines for 
Pulse-width Modulated (PWM) AC Drives, publication DRIVES-IN001
, for 
more information on impedance grounded and ungrounded systems.
ATTENTION: To avoid an electric shock hazard, verify that the voltage on the 
bus capacitors has discharged completely before servicing.
Measure the DC bus voltage at the power terminal block by measuring 
between the +DC and -DC terminals (see page 67
 for location) or between the 
+DC and -DC test point sockets if equipped. Also measure between the +DC 
terminal or test point and the chassis, and between the -DC terminal or 
testpoint and the chassis. The voltage must be zero for all three 
measurements.
IMPORTANT PowerFlex 755TS drives leave the factory with jumpers PE-A and PE-B 
connected. Reconfigure these jumpers based on the power source type 
available.

ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage exists. The drive power source type 
must be accurately determined. Jumpers PE-A and PE-B must be configured 
for the power source type according to the recommendations in Table 49.

(MOV/Input filter caps)
(1) When MOVs are disconnected, the power system must have its own transient protection to confirm known and controlled 
voltages.
(2) Frame 5…7 common DC input drives do not have the PE-A jumper.

Benefits Of Correct Configuration 
on Power Source Type
Non-Solid Ground or 
Corner Ground
•AC fed ungrounded
• Impedance grounded
• B phase ground
•DC fed from a passive 
rectifier
Disconnected Disconnected
Helps avoid severe equipment 
damage when ground fault occurs
DC fed from an active 
converter
Disconnected Disconnected
Helps avoid damage to filter 
capacitors
Solid Ground
•AC fed solidly grounded
• DC fed from passive 
rectifier that has a 
solidly grounded AC 
source
Connected Connected
• Reduced electrical noise
• Most stable operation
• EMC compliance
• Reduced voltage stress on 
components and motor bearings
