Installation
4.2 Electrical Installation
•
Connect the PE terminal on the left-hand
side of the converter to the metal frame it
is mounted on.
•
Recommended cable cross section:
10 mm²
•
Use a short wire connection preferably.
•
Clean the connection to the steel
construction from paint or dirt.
•
Use a ring clamp to ensure a good
physical connection which is resistant to
accidental disconnection.
Grounding the motor
● Ground the motor via the PE connection in the motor connector.
● Ground the connector as shown in the diagram above (grounding the converter).
Although the line and motor connectors are of a different type, the principle of grounding
them is the same.
● If possible, ground the motor housing.
EMC cable glands
Where cable glands are used within the installation of the system, it is recommended that
EMC glands are used.
The cable gland provides protection to the IP68 standard when fitted correctly.
