  • Page 55 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.

Though the inverter or the converter unit is designed to have high immunity performance, it handles low-level signals, so it requires the following basic techniques.
  • Page 57 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 the converter unit, or when their signal cables are run near the inverter, the devices may malfunction due to by air-propagated electromagnetic noises.
