CHAPTER 3 - INSTALLATIONANDCONNECTION
The inverter is provided withelectronic protection against motor overload.
This protection must be set according the specific motor. When the same
inverter drives several motors,use individual overload relaysfor each
motor. Maintain the electrical continuity of the motor cable shield.
If a disconnect switch or a contactor is inserted in the motor supply line,
DO NOT operate the disconnect switch with the motor running or when
is enabled. Maintain the electrical continuity of the motor cable
With the Dynamic Braking (DB) option, the DB resistor shall be mounted
externally. Figure 8.22 shows how to connect the DB resistor. Size it
according to the application, not exceeding the maximum current of the
Use twisted cable for the connection between inverter
Provide physical separation between this cable and the
cables. When the DB resistor is mounted inside the
