Wiring Guidelines
Follow the recommendations in this section to ensure best performance of the drive and to avoid interfer-
ence with other devices.
Cable Routing
Use the above diagram as a guide when routing wiring to the drive.
1.
Mount the drive as close as possible to the service entrance panel. Wire directly to the service entrance.
Do not connect to a sub-panel.
2. Use a dedicated branch circuit for the drive. Refer to
3. Route motor wiring out of building as soon as possible. Separate input power and motor wiring by at
least 8 in. (20.3 cm). Refer to
4. Cross over other branch circuits and facility wiring at a 90 angle. If it is necessary to run wiring in
parallel, separate by at least 8 in. (20.3 cm).
All control wiring — switches or transducers — should be in a separate conduit routed individually, not
parallel, from high voltage wiring. In addition, any shielded cables should be properly grounded.
