Otherwise, use one of the following more conservative methods:
• For drives without built-in inductors – add line impedance whenever the
transformer kVA is more than 10 times larger than the drive kVA, or the
percent source impedance relative to each drive is less than 0.5%.
• For drives with built-in inductors – add line impedance whenever the
transformer kVA is more than 20 times larger than the drive kVA, or the
percent source impedance relative to each drive is less than 0.25%.
To identify drives with built-in inductors, see the product specific information in
Table 4 on page 30 through Table 13 on page 41 . The shaded rows identify
products ratings without built-in inductors.
Use these equations to calculate the impedance of the drive and transformer:
Drive Impedance (in ohms)
Transformer Impedance (in ohms)
