6P SCR RECTIFIER WARNING
(Offline Short-Circuit) 
FOR REDUNDANT DEVICE CAPABILITY 
ONLY 
 
For SCR rectifiers, this warning will occur 
after the initial contact closure, or during the 
diagnostic sequence after a start command. 
This is the first test on the rectifier. When all 
devices blocking, the feedback from the 
devices should toggle from open to short to 
open every time the line voltage sine wave 
passes through zero. If this is consistently 
showing short (no feedback), then the drive 
assumes that the device is Short-Circuited. 
 
 
– Complete a resistance check on the
rectifier, including the gate-cathode 
resistance, the snubber and sharing 
resistors 
– Complete a firing check on the rectifier 
– Verify the snubber circuitry, and the 
sharing resistors
– Verify fiber optic integrity from SCRGD
board transmitter to FOI board receiver
– Replace all faulty components
– NOTE: There is only the Redundant
option available on the Rectifier, and only 
on 6P drives (SCR orPWM). You can 
not have N-1 operation on the rectifier 
since we can not control the line voltage.

6P SCR RECTIFIER WARNING
(Online Short-Circuit) 
FOR REDUNDANT DEVICE CAPABILITY 
ONLY 
 
For SCR rectifiers, this warning will occur 
during operation. Before an individual leg is 
fired, the drive takes 5 samples of the 
voltage across that device. This is because 
the notching on the line could cause 
individual readings to be low. If they are all 
low, the device is assumed to be short-
circuited and a warning occurs. There is 
also a parameter called Rectifier Device 
Diagnostic Delay (P266), which allows you 
to change the number of consecutive firings 
to eliminate nuisance warnings. It will still 
check 5 times before each firing, but will 
now require the condition to exist for the 
number of consecutive firings set in the 
Diagnostic Delay parameter for a warning to 
occur. 
 
– For multiple device faults, the risk of a
line to line short exists, so tests with MV 
isolated should be attempted 
– Complete a resistance check on the
rectifier, including the gate-cathode 
resistance, the snubber and sharing 
resistors 
– Complete a firing check on the rectifier 
– Verify the snubber circuitry, and the 
sharing resistors
– Verify fiber optic integrity from SCRGD
board transmitter to FOI board receiver
– Replace all faulty components 
– For nuisance faults, contact the factory 
about extending the Diagnostic Delay
– NOTE: There is only the Redundant
option available on the Rectifier, and 
only on 6P drives (SCR orPWM). You 
can not have N-1 operation on the 
rectifier since we can not control the line 
voltage.
