5.1. Grounding the Drive This manual is intended as a guide for proper installation. ABB Drives Ltd cannot assume responsibility for the compliance or the non-compliance to any code, national, local or otherwise, for the proper installation of this drive or associated equipment.
5.1.2. Grounding Guidelines The ground terminal of each ACS250 should be individually connected DIRECTLY to the site ground bus bar (through the filter if installed). ACS250 ground connections should not loop from one drive to another, or to, or from any other equipment. Ground loop impedance must confirm to local industrial safety regulations.
5.4. Drive & Motor Connections For 1 phase supply, power should be connected to L1/L, L2/N. For 3 phase supplies power should be connected to L1, L2, L3. Phase sequence is not important. The Motor should be connected to U, V, W For drives that have a dynamic brake transistor an optional external braking resistor will need be connected to +DC and BR when required.
5.6. Using the REV/Off/FWD Selector Switch (IP66 Switched Version Only) By adjusting the parameter settings the ACS250 can be configured for multiple applications and not just for Forward or Reverse. This could typically be for Hand/Off/Auto applications (also known as Local/Remote) for Industrial fan and pump industries. Parameters to Set Switch Position Notes...

Input/Output Current ratings and fuses The following tables provide the output current rating information for the various ACS250 models. ABB Drives always recommend that selection of the correct ACS250 is based upon the motor full load current at the incoming supply voltage.
All ACS250 units have phase imbalance monitoring. A phase imbalance of > 3% will result in the drive tripping. For input supplies which have supply imbalance greater than 3% (typically the Indian sub- continent & parts of Asia Pacific including China) ABB recommends the installation of input line reactors. Frequency 50 –...
12.5.4. Example of applying Derating Factors A 5Hp, 400V/460V IP66 drive is to be used at an altitude of 2000 metres above sea level, with 12kHz switching frequency and 45°C ambient temperature. From the table above, we can see that the rated current of the drive is 9.5 Amps at 40°C, Firstly, apply the swicthing frequency derating, 12kHz, 25% derating 9.5 Amps x 75% = 7.1 Amps Now, apply the derating for higher ambient temperature, 2.5% per °C above 40°C = 5 x 2.5% = 12.5%...
