Insulation monitoring

In ungrounded low-voltage networks, an insulation monitor is used to monitor the insulation
resistance to ground. This measures the current flowing across an established series
resistor. For this purpose, a measuring voltage is injected into the network against the PE
conductor. If the value falls below an adjustable threshold value for the insulation resistance,
an alarm is output.
Since the network on the DC voltage side is galvanically connected via the parallel
connection of the two partial converters, only one insulation monitor can be used to monitor
the network and DC voltage side for ground faults.

Commissioning

In principle, all converters should be commissioned as described in the Commissioning
chapter of the SINAMICS DCM DC Converter operating instructions.
The settings in Chapter Additional parameter settings (Page 37) should be made
commissioning. See Chapter Carrying out commissioning (Page 40)
To make the settings, use
● BOP20 operator panel
● AOP30 operator panel: Parameter list
● STARTER commissioning tool: Expert list.
