SP120 AC Drive Installation and Operation

English

2.4.5 Motor Protection

SP120 drives feature electronic overload protection to monitor the motor current. In
the case of multi-motor operation, thermal contacts or positive temperature coefficient
(PTC) resistors must be used for each motor. In the case of motor lead lengths greater
than 50 meters (165 feet), motor reactors should be used.

2.4.6 Grounding the Drive

Ground the drive by connecting a ground wire from the drive’s input grounding

terminal (labeled PE

) uninterrupted to earth ground. Be sure to separate the

drive’s grounding pole from those of other electrical machinery. If multiple drives are
used, make certain each drive is grounded separately (see figure 2.5).

ATTENTION: The SP120 drive has a high leakage current and must be
permanently hard wired to ground. Failure to observe this precaution
could result in severe bodily injury or loss of life.
