A.100: 
Overcurrent 
Detected (An 
overcurrent 
flowed through 
the power trans-
former or the heat 
sink overheated.)
The Main Circuit 
Cable is not wired 
correctly or there is 
faulty contact.
Check the wiring. Correct the wiring.

There is a short-circuit 
or ground fault in a 
Main Circuit Cable.
Check for short-circuits 
across Servomotor 
phases U, V, and W, or 
between the ground 
and Servomotor phases 
U, V, and W.
The cable may be short-
circuited.
Replace the cable.
There is a short-circuit 
or ground fault inside 
the Servomotor.
Check for short-circuits 
across Servomotor 
phases U, V, and W, or 
between the ground 
and Servomotor phases 
U, V, or W.
The Servomotor may be 
faulty.
Replace the Servomotor.
There is a short-circuit 
or ground fault inside 
the SERVOPACK.
Check for short-circuits 
across the Servomotor 
connection terminals U, 
V, and W on the SER-
VOPACK, or between 
the ground and termi-
nals U, V, or W.
The SERVOPACK may be 
faulty.
Replace the SERVO-
PACK.
The regenerative 
resistor is not wired 
correctly or there is 
faulty contact.
Check the wiring. Correct the wiring.

The dynamic brake 
(DB, emergency stop 
executed from the 
SERVOPACK) was 
frequently activated, 
or a DB overload 
alarm occurred.
Check the power con-
sumed by the DB resis-
tor to see how 
frequently the DB is 
being used.
Or, check the alarm dis-
play to see if a DB over-
load alarm (A.730 or 
A.731) has occurred.
Change the SERVOPACK 
model, operating meth-
ods, or the mechanisms 
so that the dynamic brake 
does not need to be used 
so frequently.
–
The regenerative 
resistor value 
exceeded the SER-
VOPACK regenerative 
processing capacity.
Check the regenerative 
load ratio in the Sig-
maWin+ Motion Monitor 
Tab Page to see how 
frequently the regenera-
tive resistor is being 
used.
Select a regenerative 
resistance value that is 
appropriate for the oper-
ating conditions and load.
