2.5.5 Bypass operation
When it is necessary to be able to power the motor directly with mains volt-
age independently from the frequency inverter (bypass operation), the
branches must be mechanically interlocked.
Figure 16: Bypass motor control (example)
NOTICE
The system may only switch (S1) between the frequency
inverter (T1) and mains voltage (see Figure 16) while in a
de-energized state.

CAUTION
The frequency inverter’s outputs (U, V, W) must not be con-
nected to the mains voltage (destruction risk, fire hazard).
￫
When running the motor directly with mains voltage, protective
measures (circuit-breaker with thermal overload protection
① or
overload relay ② ) against overload must be in place.
￫
Contactors and switches (S1) in the frequency inverter output
and for the direct start must be designed based on utilization
category AC-3 for the rated operational current of the motor.
