6 Connection
Connecting the power supply
Connect the power supply to the power supply terminals via a molded-case circuit
breaker, earth-leakage breaker or fuse as shown in the table below.
If your inverter is of the single-phase type, connect the power supply to the L1 and
L2 terminals. If it is of the three-phase type, connect the power supply to the L1, L2
and L3 terminals.
Be sure to connect a protective device to protect the cable.
•
Note
Always connect the power supply to the power supply terminals.
•
Connecting it to any other terminal will damage the inverter.
When reconnecting the power, turn off the power, wait at least
•
1 minute, and then turn the power back on.

Connecting the motor
Connect the U, V and W terminals on the motor to the U, V and W motor terminals
on the inverter, respectively. Also provide protecting grounding for the motor. If the
grounding resistance exceeds 0.1 Ω, ground the motor directly. In addition, be sure
to use a dedicated optional cable (p.57) for wiring between the inverter and motor.
The maximum wiring distance between the inverter and motor is 20 m (65.6 ft.). If
the motor and inverter must be apart by more than 20 m (65.6 ft.), please contact our
Customer Service Center.
For details on connecting the motor to a terminal box, refer to the operating manual
that came with the motor.

When connecting an earth-leakage breaker, use a product with
a current sensitivity of 200 mA or more and operating time of 0.1
second or more. Whenever possible, select an earth-leakage
breaker incorporating harmonic measures.
