Electric shock when the motor terminal box is open
As soon as the converter is connected to the line supply, the motor connections of the converter
may carry dangerous voltages. When the motor is connected to the converter, there is danger
to life through contact with the motor terminals if the motor terminal box is open.
• Close the motor terminal box before connecting the converter to the line supply.
Note
Fault protection when insulation fails in the motor circuit at the output side
In case of insulation failure in the motor circuit, the overcurrent trip of the converter meets the
requirements of IEC 60364-4-41:2005/AMD1:2017 Section 411 and Annex D for protection
against electric shock.
• Observe the installation specifications for this converter.
• Ensure the continuity of the protective conductor.
• Observe the applicable installation standards.
