Safety of machinery, and safety-critical applications
The level of integrity offered by the SE2 control functions, for example, Stop/Start,
Forward/Reverse, and Maximum Speed, is not sufficient for use in safety-critical
applications without independent channels of protection. All applications where
malfunction could cause injury or loss of life must be subject to a risk assessment
and further protection provided where needed. Within the European Union, all
machinery in which this product is used must comply with Directive 89/392/EEC,
Safety of Machinery. In particular, the electrical equipment should comply with
EN60204-1.
• SE2 units should be installed only by qualified electrical personnel and in accordance with
local and national regulations and codes of practice.
• Electric shock hazard! Disconnect and ISOLATE the SE2 before attempting any work on it.
High voltages are present at the terminals and within the drive for up to 10 minutes after
the electrical supply has been disconnected.
• Where supply to the drive is through a plug and socket connector, do not disconnect until
10 minutes have elapsed after turning off the power supply.
• Ensure correct earthing (grounding) connections. The earth (ground) cable must be
sufficient to carry the maximum supply fault current which normally is limited by the fuses
or MCB.
• The STOP function does not remove potentially lethal high voltages. Be sure to ISOLATE
the drive and wait 10 minutes before starting any work on it.
• If it is desired to operate the drive at any frequency/speed above the rated speed (P-503/
P-511) of the motor, consult the manufacturers of the motor and the driven machine about
suitability for over-speed operation.

1.3 Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
The SE2 is designed to high standards of EMC and is optionally fitted with an internal
EMC filter. This EMC filter is designed to reduce the conducted emissions back into
the supply via the power cables for compliance with European standards.
It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the equipment or system into
which the product is installed complies with the EMC legislation of the country of
use. Within the European Union, equipment into which this product is incorporated
must comply with 89/336/EEC, EMC.
For use on domestic supplies, shielded motor cable must be used with the shield
terminated to earth ground on both the motor and drive sides. The installation must
be carried out by qualified installation engineers, observing good wiring practice
such as power and signal cable segregation and correct shielding techniques to
minimize emissions. When installed in this way, an SE2 unit with a built-in filter has
emission levels lower than those defined in EN61800-3, category C2 for first
environments for shielded cable lengths of up to 5 meters.
For cable lengths longer than 5 meters, the emission levels may exceed those
defined by EN61800-3, category C2. In this case, further mitigation methods, such as
fitting an external filter) must be employed if the emission limits are to maintained.
When used on industrial supplies, or second environments, the installation must be
carried out by qualified installation engineers, observing good wiring practice such
as power and signal cable segregation and correct shielding techniques to minimize
emissions. The emissions limits defined by EN61800-3, category C3 (second
environments) are maintained for shielded cable lengths of up to 25 meters. The
cable shield should be connected to earth ground on both the drive and motor sides.

4. Power wiring
This chapter provides information about connecting power wiring to the SE2 drive.
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE
• Read and understand this manual in its entirety before installing or
operating the SE2 drive. Installation, adjustment, repair, and
maintenance of these drives must be performed by qualified
personnel.
• Disconnect all power before servicing the drive. WAIT 5 MINUTES
until the DC bus capacitors discharge.
DANGER
• DO NOT short across DC bus capacitors or touch unshielded
components or terminal strip screw connections with voltage
present.
• Install all covers before applying power or starting and stopping the
drive.
• The user is responsible for conforming to all applicable code
requirements with respect to grounding all equipment.
• Use the dedicated ground terminal to ground the drive unit. Do not
use mounting screws, bolts, or the chassis.
• Many parts in this drive, including printed circuit boards, operate at
line voltage. DO NOT TOUCH. Use only electrically-insulated tools.
Before servicing the drive:
• Disconnect all power.
• Place a “DO NOT TURN ON” label on the drive disconnect.
• Lock the disconnect in the open position.
Failure to observe these precautions will cause shock or burn,
resulting in severe personal injury or death.
4.1 General wiring information
Be sure that the installation wiring conforms with local standards. Where local
codes exceed these requirements, they must be followed.
4.1.1 Wiring Practices
When making power and control connections, observe these precautions:
•Never connect input AC power to the output terminals T1/U, T2/V, or T3/W.
Damage to the drive will result.
•Power wiring to the motor must have the maximum possible separation from
all other power wiring. Do not run in the same conduit; this separation reduces
the possibility of coupling electrical noise between circuits.
•Cross conduits at right angles whenever power and control wiring intersect.
Email: usa@vacon.com • Fax 717-264-3115

14 vacon Power wiring
•Good wiring practice also requires separation of control circuit wiring from all
power wiring. Since power delivered from the drive contains high frequencies
which may cause interference with other equipment, do not run control wires in
the same conduit or raceway with power or motor wiring.
4.1.2 Considerations for Power Wiring
Power wiring refers to the line and load connections made to terminals L1/R, L2/S,
L3/T, and T1/U, T2/V, T3/W respectively. Select power wiring as follows:
•Use only VDE, UL or CUL recognized wire.
•Wire voltage rating must be a minimum of 300 V for 230 Vac systems and 600 V
(Class 1 wire) for 400 Vac systems.
•Wire gauge must be selected based on 125% of the continuous input current
rating of the drive. Wire gauge must be selected from wire tables for 75 °C
insulation rating, and must be of copper construction. See “Ratings” on
page 40for the continuous output ratings for the drive.
See the following table for a summary of power terminal wiring specifications.

Specifications
NOTE: Wire type not specified by the manufacturer. Some types of wire may not fit within the
constraints of the conduit entry and bend radius inside the drive.
4.1.3 Grounding Guidelines
The ground terminal for each SE2 unit should be individually connected directly to
the site ground bus bar (through the filter, if installed). SE2 ground connections
should not loop from one drive to another, or to/from any other equipment. Ground
loop impedance must conform to local industrial safety regulations. To meet UL
regulations, UL approved ring crimp terminals should be used for all ground wiring
connections.
If a system ground fault monitor is to be used, only Type B devices should be used
to avoid nuisance tripping.
The safety ground is required by code for the drive. One of these points must be
connected to adjacent building steel (girder, joist), a floor ground rod, or bus bar.
