Purpose of earthing (grounding) Generally, an electrical apparatus has an earth (ground) terminal, which must be connected to the ground before use. An electrical circuit is usually insulated by an insulating material and encased. However, it is impossible to manufacture an insulating material that can shut off a leakage current completely, and actually, a slight current flows into the case.

Connection of motor with encoder (vector control) Connection of motor with encoder (vector control) Using encoder-equipped motors together with a vector control compatible option enables speed, torque, and positioning control operations under orientation control, encoder feedback control, and full-scale vector control. This section explains wiring for use of the FR-A8AP.
Page 62
Connection of motor with encoder (vector control) Switches of the FR-A8AP Differential line driver (initial status) • Encoder type selection switch (SW3) Selects either the differential line driver or complementary setting. It is initially set to the differential line driver. Switch its position according to the output circuit.
Page 63
Connection of motor with encoder (vector control) Encoder cable • As the terminal block of the FR-A8AP is an insertion type, cables need to be treated when the encoder cables of the inverter are crimping terminals. Cut the crimping terminal of the encoder cable and strip its sheath to make its cable wires loose.
Page 64
Connection of motor with encoder (vector control) Instructions for encoder cable wiring • Use shielded twisted pair cables (0.2 mm or larger) to connect the FR-A8AP. For the wiring to the terminals PG and SD, use several cables in parallel or use a thick cable, according to the wiring length. To protect the cables from noise, run them away from any source of noise (such as the main circuit and power supply voltage).
Parameter settings for a motor with encoder Parameter settings for a motor with encoder Parameter for the encoder (Pr.359, Pr.369, Pr.851, Pr.852) • Set the encoder specifications. Initial Setting Name Description value range Set when using a motor for which forward Set for the operation at 120 Hz or rotation (encoder) is clockwise (CW) viewed less.
Connection of stand-alone option units 2.10 Connection of stand-alone option units The inverter accepts a variety of stand-alone option units as required. Incorrect connection will cause inverter damage or accident. Connect and operate the option unit carefully in accordance with the corresponding option unit manual.
Page 67
Connection of stand-alone option units 2.10.2 Connection of the DC reactor • When using the DC reactor, connect it across terminals P/+ and P1. For the FR-A860-01080 or lower, the jumper connected across terminals P/+ and P1 must be removed. Otherwise, the reactor will not be effective.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE OF THE INVERTER This chapter explains the precautions for use of this product. Always read the instructions before using the equipment. For the "PRECAUTIONS FOR USE OF THE INVERTER" of the separated converter type, refer to the FR-A862 (Separated Converter Type) Instruction Manual (Hardware) [IB-0600571ENG].
Electro-magnetic interference (EMI) and leakage currents Electro-magnetic interference (EMI) and leakage currents 3.1.1 Leakage currents and countermeasures Capacitances exist between the inverter I/O cables, other cables and earth and in the motor, through which a leakage current flows. Since its value depends on the static capacitances, carrier frequency, etc., low acoustic noise operation at the increased carrier frequency of the inverter will increase the leakage current.
Page 70
Electro-magnetic interference (EMI) and leakage currents Install a molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) on the power receiving side to protect the wiring at the inverter input side. Select an MCCB according to the inverter input side power factor, which depends on the power supply voltage, output frequency and load.
Page 71
Electro-magnetic interference (EMI) and leakage currents Noise Countermeasure propagation path When devices that handle low-level signals and are liable to malfunction due to electromagnetic noises, e.g. instruments, receivers and sensors, are contained in the enclosure that contains the inverter or when their signal cables are run near the inverter, the devices may malfunction due to by air-propagated electromagnetic noises.
Power supply harmonics Power supply harmonics The inverter may generate power supply harmonics from its converter circuit to affect the power generator, power factor correction capacitor etc. Power supply harmonics are different from noise and leakage currents in source, frequency band and transmission path.
Power-OFF and magnetic contactor (MC) Power-OFF and magnetic contactor (MC) Inverter input side magnetic contactor (MC) On the inverter input side, it is recommended to provide an MC for the following purposes: (Refer to page 20 for selection.) • To disconnect the inverter from the power supply at activation of a protective function or at malfunctioning of the driving system (emergency stop, etc.).
Countermeasures against deterioration of the 600 V class motor insulation Countermeasures against deterioration of the 600 V class motor insulation In the PWM type inverter, a surge voltage attributable to wiring constants is generated at the motor terminals. Especially for a 600V class motor, the surge voltage may deteriorate the insulation.
Checklist before starting operation Checklist before starting operation The FR-A860 series inverter is a highly reliable product, but incorrect peripheral circuit making or operation/handling method may shorten the product life or damage the product. Before starting operation, always recheck the following points. Refer Check Checkpoint...
Page 76
Checklist before starting operation Refer Check Checkpoint Countermeasure to page by user When using a switching circuit as shown below, chattering due to mis- configured sequence or arc generated at switching may allow undesirable current to flow in and damage the inverter. Mis-wiring may also damage the inverter.
Although Mitsubishi Electric assures the best quality products, provide an interlock which uses inverter status output signals to prevent accidents such as damage to the machine when the inverter fails for some reason. Also at the same time consider the system configuration where a failsafe from outside the inverter, without using the inverter, is enabled even if the inverter fails.
Page 78
Failsafe system which uses the inverter (b) Checking the inverter operating status by the inverter operation ready completion signal Power supply Operation ready signal (RY signal) is output when the inverter power is ON and the inverter becomes operative. Check if the RY signal is output after powering ON the inverter.
Page 79
Failsafe system which uses the inverter Backup method outside the inverter Even if the interlock is provided by the inverter status signal, enough failsafe is not ensured depending on the failure status of the inverter itself. For example, if an inverter CPU fails in a system interlocked with the inverter's fault, start, and RUN signals, no fault signal will be output and the RUN signal will be kept ON because the inverter CPU is down.
