In an IT line system, all of the conductors are insulated with respect to the PE protective
conductor – or connected to the PE protective conductor through an impedance.
There are IT line supplies where the neutral conductor N is either transferred – or not.
Inverter operated on an IT line system
● Inverters with integrated line filter:
– Operation on IT line systems not permissible.
● Inverter without line filter:
– Operation on all IT line systems permissible.

Behavior of the inverter when a ground fault occurs
In some instances, even for a ground fault, the inverter should still remain functional. In
cases such as these, you must install an output reactor. This prevents an overcurrent trip or
damage to the drive.
Dimensioning the protective conductor
Danger to life caused by high leakage currents for an interrupted protective conductor
The drive components conduct a high leakage current via the protective conductor.
Touching conductive parts when the protective conductor is interrupted can result in death
or serious injury.
• Lay the protective conductor as specified.
