1.5Earthing and earth fault protection
CAUTION!
The VACON® 20 X AC drive must always be earthed with an earthing conductor connected to
the earthing terminal marked with .
Since the touch current exceeds 3.5 mA AC, according to EN61800-5-1, the drive shall have a
fixed connection and provision of an additional terminal for a second protective earthing conductor of the same cross-sectional area as the original protective earthing conductor.
Three screws are provided for: the ORIGINAL protective earthing conductor, the SECOND protective conductor and the MOTOR protective conductor (the customer can choose the screw for
each one). See Figure 1 for the location of the three screws in the two possible options available.

In VACON® 20 X, the phase conductor and the corresponding protective earthing conductor can
be of the same cross-sectional area, provided they are made of the same metal (because the
cross-sectional area of the phase conductor is less than 16 mm
The cross-sectional area of every protective earthing conductor which does not form a part of
the supply cable or cable enclosure shall, in any case, be not less than:
•2.5 mm

4.1Circuit breaker
Please, disconnect the drive via an external circuit breaker. You have to provide a switching device between supply and main connection terminals.
When connecting the input terminals to the power supply using a circuit breaker, observe that
this is of type B or type C and ensure it has a capacity of 1.5 to 2 times of the inverter’s rated
current (see Table 24 and Table 25).
NOTE: circuit breaker is not allowed in installations where C-UL is required. Only fuses are
recommended.
4.2UL standards on cabling
To meet the UL (Underwriters Laboratories) regulations, use a UL-approved copper cable with
a minimum heat-resistance of +70/75°C. Use Class 1 wire only.
The units are suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering no more than 50,000 rms symmetrical amperes, 600V AC maximum, when protected by T or J class fuses.
Integral solid state short circuit protection does not provide branch circuit protection. Branch circuit protection must be provided in accordance with the

The recommended fuse types are gG/gL (IEC 60269-1) or class T (UL & CSA). The fuse voltage
rating should be selected according to the supply network. The final selection should be made
according to local regulations, cable installation conditions and cable specifications. Bigger
fuses than those recommended below shall not be used.
Check that the fuse operating time is less than 0.4 seconds. Operating time depends on used
fuse type and impedance of the supply circuit. Consult the factory about faster fuses. Vacon
also recommends for high speed J (UL & CSA), aR (UL recognized, IEC 60269-4) and gS (IEC
60269-4) fuse ranges.

5.4Fieldbus connection
Modbus is a communication protocol developed by Modicon systems. In other words, it is a way
of sending information between electronic devices. The device requesting the information is
called the Modbus Master and the devices supplying information are Modbus Slaves. In a standard Modbus network, there is one Master and up to 247 Slaves, each with a unique Slave Address from 1 to 247. The Master can also write information to the Slaves. Modbus is typically
used to transmit signals from instrumentation and control devices back to a main controller
or data gathering system.
The Modbus communication interface is built around messages. The format of these Modbus
messages is independent of the type of physical interface used. The same protocol can be used
regardless of the connection type. Thanks to this, Modbus allows for the easy upgrade of the
hardware structure of an industrial network, without the need for significant changes in the
software. A device can also communicate with several Modbus nodes at once, although they
are connected with different interface types, without the need to use a different protocol for every connection.
Figure 33.Basic structure of Modbus frame.
On simple interfaces such as RS485, the Modbus messages are sent in plain form over the network. In this case the network is dedicated to Modbus.
Each Modbus message has the same structure. Four basic elements are present in each message. The sequence of these elements is the same for all messages, to make it easy to parse
the content of the Modbus message. A conversation is always started by a master in the Modbus network. A Modbus master sends a message and—depending on the contents of the message— a slave takes action and responds to it. There can be more masters in a Modbus
network. The address in the message header is used to define which device should respond to
a message. All other nodes on the Modbus network ignore the message if the address field
doesn't match their own address.

5.4.2Preparation for use through RS485
Strip about 15 mm of the RS485 cable (see specification on Table 22) and cut off
the grey cable shield. Remember to do this for both bus cables (except for the
last device).
Leave no more than 10 mm of the cable outside the terminal block and strip the
cables at about 5 mm to fit in the terminals. See picture below.

3
Also strip the cable now at such a distance from the terminal that you can fix it to
the frame with the grounding clamp. Strip the cable at a maximum length of 15
mm. Do not strip the aluminium cable shield!
Then connect the cable to its appropriate terminals on Vacon20 X AC drive standard terminal block, terminals A and B (A = negative, B = positive).
Using the cable clamp included in the supply of the drive, ground the shield of
the RS485 cable to the frame of the AC drive.
If VACON® 20 X drive is the last device on the bus,
the bus termination must be set. Locate the switches
to the right of the control terminals (see Figure 32)
and turn the SW4 switch to position “0”. Biasing is
built in the termination resistor.
