ATTENTION: Only qualified electrical personnel familiar with the construction and operation of this
equipment and the hazards involved should install, adjust, operate, or service this equipment. Read and
!
understand this manual and other applicable manuals in their entirety before proceeding. Failure to
observe this precaution could result in severe bodily injury or loss of life.
ATTENTION: Do not install or remove modification kits with power applied to the drive. Disconnect
and lock out incoming power before attempting such installation or removal. Failure to observe this
!
precaution could result in severe bodily injury or loss of life.
ATTENTION: DC Bus capacitors retain hazardous voltages after input power has been disconnected.
After disconnecting input power, wait five (5) minutes for the DC bus capacitors to discharge and then
!
check the voltage with a voltmeter to ensure that the DC bus capacitors are discharged before touching
any internal components. Failure to observe this precaution could result in severe bodily injury or loss of
life.
ATTENTION: The user is responsible for conforming with all applicable local, national, and
international codes. Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to, or destruction of, the
!
equipment.
ATTENTION: The drive contains ESD- (Electrostatic Discharge) sensitive parts and assemblies. Static
control precautions are required when installing, testing, servicing or repairing the drive. Erratic machine
!
operation and damage to, or destruction of, equipment can result if this procedure is not followed.
Failure to observe this precaution could result in severe bodily injury or loss of life.

This kit is for field upgrade only. You should not use it if you are replacing the drive. If
you replace the drive in the future, you should remove the resistor kit from the drive
system.
Step 1: Verifying the DC Bus
Capacitors are Discharged
To install the external bus resistor kit you need to:
❐ Step 1: Verify that the DC Bus Capacitors are discharged
❐ Step 2: Identify a mounting location for the resistor assembly
❐ Step 3: Drill mounting holes for the resistor assembly, using the
template
❐ Step 4: Mount the resistor assembly
❐ Step 5: Unplug connectors P1 and P2, and route harness
❐ Step 6: Connect the ground wire
❐ Step 7: Connect the harness
❐ Step 8: Verify installation
❐ Step 9: Register installation
ATTENTION: DC Bus capacitors retain hazardous voltages
after input power has been disconnected. After disconnecting
!
input power, wait five (5) minutes for the DC bus capacitors to
discharge and then check the voltage with a voltmeter to ensure
that the DC bus capacitors are discharged before touching any
internal components. Failure to observe this precaution could
result in severe bodily injury or loss of life.

Step 2: Identifying the
Mounting Location
Consider the following factors when choosing the location for the resistor
assembly:
• the resistor assembly must be mounted inside the drive cabinet
• the resistor assembly must be mounted vertically, with the closed part of
the protective cover pointing towards the front of the enclosure
• the wiring harness must be able to reach connectors P1 and P2 inside the
drive
• the wiring harness must not pass over unprotected sharp edges or hot
surfaces
• the resistor assembly must not be mounted on the enclosure door

Step 3: Drilling the Mounting
Holes
ATTENTION: Metal debris or other foreign matter must be
kept from falling into the drive. Metal debris or other foreign
!
matter may become lodged in the drive circuitry resulting in
component damage. Failure to observe this precaution could
result in severe bodily injury or loss of life and/or damage to, or
destruction of, equipment.

Locate the P1 and P2 Connectors near the upper-left part of the power
structure and unplug them.
To Resistor Assembly
Important: The harness connections are considered power level wiring.
Run them separately from I/O and signal wiring.
Step 6: Connecting the
Ground Wire
Typical installations can use the existing ground stud originally intended for
grounding the enclosure door.
This figure illustrates recommended practices for connecting grounds to an
enclosure.

Performing Continuity Tests
In these tests you are verifying continuity, a short circuit, between the two test
points. The continuity mode on a digital multi-meter provides the easiest method
for performing this test. Place one meter lead on the first test point and the meter
should beep when you place the other lead on the second test point.
If your meter does not have a continuity mode, you can use a resistance mode.
Place one meter lead on the first test point and the meter should indicate a short
circuit (read approximately zero ohms) when you place the other lead on the
second test point.
