General Requirements for the 
Installation Site
It is important to properly plan before installing a SP600 AC drive to 
ensure that the drive’s environment and operating conditions are 
satisfactory.
Note that no devices are to be mounted behind the drive. If 
air-cooled devices are mounted near the drive, the hot air exhaust 
may raise the ambient temperature level above what is allowed for 
safe operation of the drive. 
The area behind the drive must be kept clear of all control and 
power wiring. Power connections may create electromagnetic fields 
that may interfere with control wiring or components when run in 
close proximity to the drive. 
Read the recommendations in the following sections before 
continuing with drive installation.
3.1.1 Verifying Power Module AC Input Ratings
Match Available Power
SP600 drives are suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering 
up to a maximum of 200,000 rms symmetrical amperes and a 
maximum of 600 volts (nominal based on drive rating).
