VariMax HC4960 Quick installation and start-up guide This guide is applicable to the global IEC and NEC North American installations. About this document HHI-ICD-IOM-EN-02094 Rev 04-2024 @2024 Hubbell Industrial Controls. All rights reserved. Original instructions.
Conduit with continuous conductivity is also allowed and must be grounded on both ends. • Motor cable: Hubbell recommends symmetrically shielded VFD motor cable to reduce bearing current and wear and stress on motor insulation and to provide the best EMC performance. Although not recommended, conductors inside continuously conductive conduit is allowed in NEC installations.
> 100 Mohm is only required at or above 1000 amps. • Hubbell does not guarantee the EMC category or the operation of the ground leakage detector built inside the drive. WARNING! Do not install the drive on a 525…690 V corner-grounded or midpoint-grounded delta system.

• Conduit ground: Bond the conduit to the drive’s conduit box and to the distribution panel enclosure. Note: All openings in the drive enclosure must be closed with UL listed For a VFD cable installation see c. devices having the same Type rating as the drive Type. www.hubbell.com/hubbellindustrialcontrols/en...

• Frames R4...R9 IP21 and frames R1...R9 IP55: Slide the cables through the holes in the cable entry and attach the grommets to the holes. R1...R3, IP21 R1...R3 R4...R5 3d 3c 3b 3c www.hubbell.com/hubbellindustrialcontrols/en R1...R3 R4...R5 R1, R2: 1.5 N·m ( 13.3 lbf·in) R3: 2 N·m (17 lbf·in)
Frames R1…R3: Ground also the pair-cable shields and grounding wires at the cable entry box grounding clamp. Frames R4…R9: Ground the pair-cable shields and all grounding wires to the clamp below the control unit. • Tie all control cables to the provided cable tie mounts. www.hubbell.com/hubbellindustrialcontrols/en...

• Typical motor power with no overload capacity (nominal use). The kilowatt ratings apply to most IEC 4-pole motors. The horsepower ratings apply to most NEMA 4-pole motors. • For IEC installations, Hubbell recommends aR fuses. See hardware manual for guidelines in selecting between aR and gG fuses, and for additional fuse alternatives.
