LEROY-SOMER INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE Ref : 100080 Rev : 0 CPLS Drip-proof 3-phase induction motors IMPORTANT These symbols appear in this document whenever it is important to take special precautions during installation, operation, maintenance or servicing of the motors. It is essential that electric motors are installed by experienced, qualified and authorised personnel. In accordance with the main requirements of EEC Directives, the safety of people, animals and property should be ensured when fitting the motors into machines.
LEROY-SOMER INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE Ref : 100080 Rev : 0 CPLS Drip-proof 3-phase induction motors 1 - RECEIPT On receipt of your motor, check that it has not suffered any damage in transit. If there are obvious signs of knocks, contact the carrier (you may able to claim on their insurance) and after a visual check, turn the motor by hand to detect any malfunction.

LEROY-SOMER INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE Ref : 100080 Rev : 0 CPLS Drip-proof 3-phase induction motors Cross-section of the power supply cables The voltage drop in cables (standard NFC 15.100) will be much more important than the current will be high. The voltage drop should therefore be calculated for the starting current to see if this is suitable for the application The chart below can be used to select the conductors according to the length of the supply cables and the starting current, in order to limit the voltage drop to 3% maximum.
