Branch circuit protection:
In order to protect the installation against electrical and fire hazard, all branch circuits in an in-
stallation, switch gear, machines etc., must be short-circuited and overcurrent protected according
to national/international regulations.
Short circuit protection:
Danfoss recommends using the fuses mentioned in the following table to protect service personnel
or other equipment in case of an internal failure in the unit or short-circuit on DC-link. The fre-
quency converter provides full short circuit protection in case of a short-circuit on the motor or
brake output.
Overcurrent protection:
Provide overload protection to avoid overheating of the cables in the installation. Overcurrent
protection must always be carried out according to national regulations. Fuses must be designed
for protection in a circuit capable of supplying a maximum of 100,000 A (symmetrical), 480 V
rms
maximum.
