- The power source does not start, control panel off. 

 

MAINS SUITABILITY TEST. 

q

 

Missing voltage at the power source input due to tripped mains protection. 
 
 

NO 

 
 

YES 

 

Eliminate any short-circuits or isolation leaks between the various conductors and 
towards earth in connections between the power cable, terminal board (46), 
contactor (47), switches (50) and (51), service transformer (44) and fan (26). 

 

Mains not suitable to power the power source (ex.: insufficient installed power). 

 

MAINS CONNECTION TEST. 

q

 

(art. 574) Contactor (47), power terminals = approximately 230 Vac. 

q

 

(arts.  575,  591, 593)  Contactor (47), power terminals = approximately 3 X 400  Vac or 3 X 
230 Vac, depending on mains voltage. 
 
 

YES 

 
 

NO 

 

Check power cable and plug and connections on terminal board (46), and replace 
if necessary. 

 

Check the mains voltage conditions.
