Solution
• Check and correct the reason for
the underload.
• Check that the settings are
according to the operation
conditions.
• Check the bearings of the motor
and load.
• Check that the load is not running
stiff.
• Check the circuits including the
motor for any insulation fault, phase
to phase or ground fault.
• Check the main voltage and the
motor circuit.
• Restart the motor and check the
phase currents.
• Check the phase sequence on the
line side to (L1-L2-L3).
