Cables

The table below is only a guide; refer to local wiring regulations for correct size of cables. In some cases, a larger cable size is required to avoid excessive voltage drop.

Use 105°C (221°F) (UL 60/75°C temp rise) PVC-insulated cable with copper conductors having a suitable voltage rating, for the following power connectors:

  • AC supply to external EMC filter (when used)
  • AC supply (or external EMC filter) to drive
  • Drive to motor
  • Drive to braking resistor Motor cables The recommended output cable sizes assume that the motor maximum current matches that of the drive. Where a motor of reduced rating is used, programmed with the correct motor rated voltage.

Fuses

The AC supply to the drive must be fitted with suitable protection against overload and short circuits. Tables below show the recommended fuse ratings. Failure to observe this requirement will cause risk of fire.

A fuse or other protection device must be included in all live connectors to the AC supply.

An MCB (miniature circuit breaker) or MCCB (molded case circuit breaker) with type C tripping characteristics maybe used in place of fuses as long as the fault clearing capacity is sufficient for the installation.

Fuse types
Europe: Type G HRC fuses complying with EN60269 parts1 and 2 (BS88)
USA: Bussman Limitron KTK series, class CC fast acting

NOTE 1 The safety file procedure applies the EN61800-5-1 (IEC61800-5-1) standard (Electrical and thermal requirements, electrical adjustable speed drive systems)

NOTE 2 The drives require an optional top cover kit to meet the NEMA 1 requirements. Any operator-accessible parts will conform to EN61010-1 (Safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use). European installers will apply EN60204-1 to their control panels, so the drive design will be compatible with EN60204-1 (Safety of machinery - electrical equipment of machines).
