WARNING:
P
● Always disconnect the power before performing any wiring work on frequency inverters.
Frequency inverters contain high voltages that are potentially lethal.
● After switching off the power supply always wait for at least 10 minutes before proceeding
to allow the charge in the inverter's capacitors to drop to safe levels and check for residual
voltage between terminal P/+ and N/- with a meter etc., to avoid a hazard of electrical shock.

Power supply, motor and earth connections
The models of the FR-A820/A840/A846 series must be connected directly to a 3-phase AC power sup-
ply. The FR-A842 models must be operated with a converter unit (FR-CC2), which has to be operated
separately. For more details about the installation of the converter unit please refer to the corre-
sponding FR-CC2 Instruction Manual.
