Connecting
Install the converter so that you are compliant with local regulations for erecting and
installing low-voltage systems.
Note
Safety devices
Install suitable protective equipment between the line supply and converter.
Note
Operating displays for converter operation
If, when switching over a function from ON to OFF, an LED or other similar display is not lit
or not active; this does not indicate that the device is switched-off or in a no-current
condition.
Observe the following product note about protection against indirect contact:
To protect against indirectly touching part of the motor circuit of a converter and to
automatically shut down in the case of a fault according to DIN EN 60364-4-41 (VDE 0100-
410). (http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/103474630)
Electrical shock due to inadequate touch protection
Due to faulty contact protection, the power connections of the converter may be openly
accessible. Touching live power connections can result in death or severe injury.
• Make the openings for the converter power connections just large enough for the cables
• Cover power connections that are not used so that they cannot be touched.
• Use the dummy plugs provided in the accessory pack for unused terminals.
Fire or electric shock due to unsuitable residual-current protective devices
The converter may create a current through the protective conductor. The current through
the protective conductor can cause the residual current device (RCD) or residual current
monitor (RCM) to incorrectly trip (nuisance trip). In the case of a ground fault, the fault
current can contain a DC component, which prevents the RCD or RCM from tripping, with
the risk of subsequent fire or electric shock.
• Use the protection and monitoring devices recommended in the documentation.
