Kinetix 300 Drive Motor-power Wire Shielding
A motor-power ground clamp and two #6-32 x 1 screws are supplied with the Kinetix 300 drive.
Install the supplied motor-power ground clamp within 50…75 mm (2…3 in.) of the drive by
using the two #6-32 x 1 screws.

Motor Overload Protection
This servo drive uses solid-state motor overload protection that operates in accordance with
UL 508C. Motor overload protection is provided by algorithms (thermal memory) that predict
actual motor temperature based on operating conditions as long as control power is continuously
applied. However, when control power is removed, thermal memory is not retained.
In addition to thermal memory protection, this drive provides an input for an external
temperature sensor/thermistor device, embedded in the motor, to support the UL requirement
for motor overload protection.
Some motors supported by this drive do not contain temperature sensors/thermistors; therefore,
motor overload protection against excessive consecutive motor overloads with power cycling is
not supported.
