WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE!
Frequency converters contain high voltage when connected to AC mains input power. Installation, start up, and maintenance should be performed by qualified personnel only. Failure to perform installation, start up, and maintenance by qualified personnel could result in death or serious injury.
High Voltage
Frequency converts are connected to hazardous mains voltages. Extreme care should be taken to protect against shock. Only trained personnel familiar with electronic equipment should install, start, or maintain this equipment.
WARNING
UNINTENDED START!
When the drive is connected to AC mains, the motor may start at any time. The drive, motor, and any driven equipment must be in operational readiness. Failure to be in operational readiness when the drive is connected to AC mains could result in death, serious injury, equipment, or property damage.
Unintended Start
When the drive is connected to the AC mains, the motor may be started by means of an external switch, a serial bus command, an input reference signal, or a cleared fault condition. Use appropriate cautions to guard against an unintended start.
WARNING
DISCHARGE TIME!
Frequency converters contain DC link capacitors that can remain charged even when AC mains is disconnected. To avoid electrical hazards, remove AC mains from the drive before doing any service or repair and wait the amount of time specified in Table 1.1. Failure to wait the specified time after power has been removed prior to doing service or repair on the unit could result in death or serious injury.

1.3Product Overview
A drive is an electronic motor controller that converts AC mains input into a variable AC waveform output. The frequency and voltage of the output are regulated to control the motor speed or torque. The drive can vary the speed of the motor in response to system feedback, such as changing temperature or pressure for controlling fan, compressor, or pump motors. The drive can also regulate the motor by responding to remote commands from external controllers.
In addition, the drive monitors the system and motor status, issues warnings or alarms for fault conditions, starts and stops the motor, optimizes energy efficiency, and offers many more control, monitoring, and efficiency functions. Operation and monitoring functions are available as status indications to an outside control system or serial communication network.

2.4.1 Requirements
WARNING
EQUIPMENT HAZARD!
Rotating shafts and electrical equipment can be hazardous. All electrical work must conform to national and local electrical codes. It is strongly recommended that installation, start up, and maintenance be performed only by trained and qualified personnel. Failure to follow these guidelines could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
WIRING ISOLATION!
Run input power, motor wiring and control wiring in three separate metallic conduits or use separated shielded cable for high frequency noise isolation. Failure to isolate power, motor and control wiring could result in less than optimum drive and associated equipment performance.
For your safety, comply with the following requirements.
•Electronic controls equipment is connected to hazardous mains voltage. Extreme care should be taken to protect against electrical hazards when applying power to the unit.
•Run motor cables from multiple frequency converters separately. Induced voltage from output motor cables run together can charge equipment capacitors even with the equipment turned off and locked out.
Overload and Equipment Protection
•An electronically activated function within the drive provides overload protection for the motor. The overload calculates the level of increase to activate timing for the trip (controller output stop) function. The higher the current draw, the quicker the trip response. The overload provides Class 20 motor protection. See 8 Warnings and Alarms for details on the trip function.
•Because the motor wiring carries high frequency current, it is important that wiring for mains, motor power, and control are run separately. Use metallic conduit or separated shielded wire. Failure to isolate power, motor, and control wiring could result in less than optimum equipment performance. See Illustration 2.5.
2 2
Illustration 2.5 Proper Electrical Installation Using Conduit
•All frequency converters must be provided with short-circuit and over-current protection. Input fusing is required to provide this protection, see Illustration 2.6. See maximum fuse ratings in
10.3 Fuse Tables.
Illustration 2.6 Drive Fuses
Wire Type and Ratings
•All wiring must comply with local and national regulations regarding cross-section and ambient temperature requirements.
•GE recommends that all power connections be made with a minimum 75° C rated copper wire.
•See 10.1 Power-dependent Specifications for recommended wire sizes.

2.4.2 Earth (Grounding) Requirements
WARNING
GROUNDING HAZARD!
For operator safety, it is important to ground drive
2 2 properly in accordance with national and local electrical codes as well as instructions contained within these instructions. Ground currents are higher than 3,5mA. Failure to ground drive properly could result in death or serious injury.
NOTE
It is the responsibility of the user or certified electrical installer to ensure correct grounding (earthing) of the equipment in accordance with national and local electrical codes and standards.
•Follow all local and national electrical codes to ground electrical equipment properly
•Proper protective grounding for equipment with ground currents higher than 3,5mA must be established, see Leakage Current (>3,5mA)
•A dedicatedground wire is required for input power, motor power and control wiring
•Use the clamps provided with on the equipment for proper ground connections
•Do not ground one drive to another in a “daisy chain” fashion
•Keep the ground wire connections as short as possible
•Use of high-strand wire to reduce electrical noise is recommended
•Follow motor manufacturer wiring requirements
2.4.2.1 Leakage Current (>3,5mA)
Follow national and local codes regarding protective earthing of equipment with a leakage current > 3,5mA. Drive technology implies high frequency switching at high power. This will generate a leakage current in the earth connection. A fault current in the drive at the output power terminals might contain a DC component which can charge the filter capacitors and cause a transient earth current. The earth leakage current depends on various system configurations including RFI filtering, screened motor cables, and drive power.
EN/IEC61800-5-1 (Power Drive System Product Standard) requires special care if the leakage current exceeds 3,5mA. Earth grounding must be reinforced in one of the following ways:
•Earth ground wire of at least 10mm2
•Two separate earth ground wires both complying with the dimensioning rules
See EN 60364-5-54 § 543.7 for further information.
Using RCDs
Where residual current devices (RCDs), also known as earth leakage circuit breakers (ELCBs), are used, comply with the following:
Use RCDs of type B only which are capable of detecting AC and DC currents
Use RCDs with an inrush delay to prevent faults due to transient earth currents
Dimension RCDs according to the system configuration and environmental considerations

2.4.5.5 Control Terminal Functions
Drive functions are commanded by receiving control input signals.
•Each terminal must be programmed for the
function it will be supporting in the parameters 2 2 associated with that terminal. SeeTable 2.2 for
terminals and associated parameters.
•It is important to confirm that the control terminal is programmed for the correct function. See 4 User Interface for details on accessing parameters and for details on programming.
•The default terminal programming is intended to initiate drive functioning in a typical operational mode.
2.4.5.4 Using Screened Control Cables
Correct screening
The preferred method in most cases is to secure control and serial communication cables with screening clamps provided at both ends to ensure best possible high frequency cable contact.
50/60Hz ground loops
With very long control cables, ground loops may occur. To eliminate ground loops, connect one end of the screen-to- ground with a 100nF capacitor (keeping leads short).
Avoid EMC noise on serial communication
To eliminate low-frequency noise between frequency converters, connect one end of the screen to terminal 61. This terminal is connected to ground via an internal RC link. Use twisted-pair cables to reduce interference between conductors.
2.4.5.6 Terminal 53 and 54 Switches
•Analog input terminals 53 and 54 can select either voltage (0 to 10V) or current (0/4-20mA) input signals
•Remove power to the drive before changing switch positions
•Set switches A53 and A54 to select the signal type. U selects voltage, I selects current.
•The switches are accessible when the keypad has been removed (see Illustration 2.18). Note that some option cards available for the unit may cover these switches and must be removed to change switch settings. Always remove power to the unit before removing option cards.
•Terminal 53 default is for a speed reference signal in open loop set in DR-61 Terminal 53 Switch Setting

HIGH VOLTAGE! |
|
|
If input and output connections have been connected improperly, there is potential for high voltage on these terminals. If power leads for multiple motors are improperly run in same conduit, there is potential for leakage current to charge capacitors within the drive, even when disconnected from mains input. For initial start up, make no assumptions about power components. Follow pre-start procedures. Failure to follow pre-start procedures could result in personal injury or damage to equipment.
1.Input power to the unit must be OFF and locked out. Do not rely on the drive disconnect switches for input power isolation.
2.Verify that there is no voltage on input terminals L1 (91), L2 (92), and L3 (93), phase-to-phase and phase-to-ground,
3.Verify that there is no voltage on output terminals 96 (U), 97 (V), and 98 (W), phase-to- phase and phase-to-ground.
4.Confirm continuity of the motor by measuring ohm values on U-V (96-97), V-W (97-98), and W-U (98-96).
5.Check for proper grounding of the drive as well as the motor.
6.Inspect the drive for loose connections on terminals.
7.Record the following motor-nameplate data: power, voltage, frequency, full load current, and nominal speed. These values are needed to program motor nameplate data later.
