1.
This column shows the maximum input available interrupt current (AIC) rating the Altivar 32 drive can be installed on without adding impedance
to the drive. Electrical distribution systems with a higher AIC capability will cause higher input currents in the front end of the drive. Install at least the
minimum inductance shown when using an Altivar 32 drive on a system with a higher AIC value shown in this column. Without any additional
impedance the column with the Input AIC ratings are the Short Circuit Current Ratings (SCCR) with the listed circuit breakers, GVpP products, and
fuses.
2.
The Altivar 32 drive has a 100kA interrupt rating on the output of the drive. In addition to providing a rating based on shorting the output of the
drive, these short circuit current ratings have been obtained by shorting components internal to the Altivar 32. These ratings allow proper
coordination of short circuit protection. The amp rating of the short circuit protection devices in the table are maximum values. Smaller amp sizes
may be used.
Integral solid state short circuit protection in the drive does not provide branch circuit protection. Branch circuit protection must be provided in
accordance with the National Electrical Code and any local codes. Ratings apply to an Altivar 32 drive mounted in a non-ventilated Type 1, 3R, 4(X) or
12 rated enclosure. Minimum enclosure volume is 3.375 times the drive volume. The listed line reactor minimum inductance is required to get these
higher ratings.
3.
Circuit Breaker part number designations: p = short circuit current rating.
For 208 / 230 V range, use: p = D for 25kA, G for 65kA, J for 65kA, L for 65kA. For 480 V range, use: p = D for 18kA, G for 35kA, J for 65kA, L for 65kA.
4.
480 V ratings are for Wye connected electrical distribution systems. GV2Ppp self protected manual combination starter must be used with
GV2GH7 insulating bar rier to meet UL 508 Type E rating. GV3Ppp self protected manual combination starter must be used with GV3G66 + GVAM11
insulating barrier to meet UL 508 Type E rating.
5.
GV2P products detailed below can be used in place of the GV3P products for obtaining the ratings listed in the Input AIC ratings column. GV2P16
for GV3P13, GV2P20 for GV3P18, GV2P22 for GV3P25.
6.
Fuse type can be fast acting or time delay Class J, or Class CC.

.
UL508C Par. 57.1 requires publishing the standard Type E combination motor controller power rating since this is a basic identification marking of
the Type E devices. However, when applied as an input overcurrent protective device for a drive, the rated current of the Type E combination motor
controller, not the rated power, is the key parameter for dimensioning (reference UL508C paragraph 45.8.11 and 45.8.12).
Schneider Electric GVpP Type E combination motor controllers are adjustable, their current range is shown on the adjustment dial and their
selection is based on the input current and not power rating of the drive.
