    SAFETY Earthing and earth fault protection The Vacon NX frequency converter must always be earthed with an earthing conductor connected to the PE bar in the lower front side of the cabinet. The earth fault protection inside the frequency converter protects only the converter itself against earth faults in the motor or the motor cable.

    Note: The NXC regenerative low-harmonic drive incorporates an LCL filter instead of AC chokes and this instruction can be ignored. The AC input choke carries out several functions in the Vacon NX 6- and 12-pulse frequency converter. The input choke is needed as an essential component for motor control, to protect the input and DC-link components against abrupt changes of current and voltage as well as to function as a protection against harmonics.

    The motor terminals U, V, W and the DC-link/brake resistor terminals –/+ are live when Vacon NX is connected to mains, even if the motor is not running. The control I/O-terminals are isolated from the mains potential. How- ever, the relay outputs and other I/O-terminals may have a dangerous control voltage present even when Vacon NX is disconnected from mains.
