RECOMMENDATIONS CONCERNING THE INSTALLATION OF VARIABLE-SPEED
APPLIANCES AND PERSONAL SAFETY
• You must connect the machine to a 200-240 V
/ 50 or 60 Hz single-phase alternating current
supply with an earthed socket. A higher voltage will
destroy the wobbulator.
• The earthed socket ensures operator safety.
Circuit interrupters ensuring user safety
Ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) intended for
variable-speed appliances need to be selected with
great care in order to ensure operator safety. GFCIs
may be sensitive to alternating current (type AC), impulse current (type A) or all currents (type B).
Danger ! Wobbulators feature a bridge-connected
rectifier of the mains supply voltage. For this reason,
in the event of an earth contact, a continuous fault
current may fail to trip a differential circuit breaker
that is only sensitive to alternating current (type AC).
As the appliance has a single-phase supply, it is
therefore advisable to use a GFCI that is sensitive to
impulse current (type A), identified by the following
symbol: .
Caution: sthese GFCIs may go under different na-
mes, according to the manufacturer.
Appliances with wobbulators produce a fault current
on the earth wire. This current may be sufficient to
trip the differential circuit breaker unnecessarily. This
may occur if :
• Several variable-speed appliances are connected
to the same GFCI.
• The appliance produces a fault current that is above the GFCI’s actual trip threshold.
Caution: As there are manufacturing tolerances,
the actual trip threshold of a GFCI will be between
50% and 100% of its theoretical nominal threshold.
Should a problem arise, measure the fault current
and the GFCI’s actual trip threshold.
You can begin by consulting the characteristics of
your appliance in the table below:

These recommendations apply to machines equipped with an induction motor and a single-phase or
three-phase wobbulator.
NB:
- The electrical circuit and the protective devices must
comply with national regulations.
- The machine must be wired in by a qualified electrician
Protecting your appliance
• Like all electronic devices, wobbulators in clude
components that are sensitive to electrostatic discharges (ESDs). Before conducting any work on
these wobbulators, technicians must therefore rid
themselves of electrostatic charges.
• The machine must be disconnected from the mains
supply before any internal connection operations
are carried out.
• Repeatedly switching on the appliance will cause
the wobbulator to overload and may result in its
destruction. After the machine has been switched
off, you must wait for 3 minutes before switching it
back on again.
50 or 60 Hz single-phase power supply
• The appliance runs on single-phase or three-phase
current as far as the variator, which turns the
current into variable frequency three-phase current
to supply the motor.
