Instructions For Compliance With U.s. And Canadian Electrical Codes - Mitsubishi FR-E500 Series Instruction Manual

2.3.6 Instructions for compliance with U.S. and
Canadian Electrical Codes
(Standard to comply with: UL 508C)
(1) Installation
The above types of inverter have been approved as products for use in enclosure and
approval tests were conducted under the following conditions. For enclosure design,
refer to these conditions so that the ambient temperature of the inverter is 50°C or less.
Cabinet (enclosure)
Inverter Type
Size (Unit: mm)
FR-E520 - W
3.7KND 255×192×218
(2) Branch circuit protection
For installation in United States, branch circuit protection must be provided, in
accordance with the National Electrical Code and any applicable local codes.
For installation in Canada, branch circuit protection must be provided in accordance
with the Canada Electrical Code and any applicable provincial codes.
(3) Short circuit ratings
Suitable For Use In A Circuit Capable of Delivering Not More Than 5kA rms
Symmetrical Amperes.
(4) Wiring of the power supply and motor
Screw the cables wired to the input (R, S, T) <L
terminals and control circuit of the inverter to the specified tightening torque using UL-
recognized, 75° or higher rated copper wires and round crimping terminals. Crimp the
crimping terminals with the crimping tool recommended by the terminal maker.
(5) Motor overload protection
When using the electronic overcurrent protection function as motor overload protection,
set the rated motor current in Pr. 9 "electronic thermal O/L relay".
When connecting two or more motors to the inverter, install external thermal relays for
individual motors.
