2.10.3 Bypass circuit
If a bypass is required, use mechanically linked switches or contactors or
electrically interlocked contactors in order to ensure that the motor terminals
will not be simultaneously connected to the mains connection and to the
variable frequency drive’s output terminals.
When the motor is being switched off, the output (U, V, W) of variable
frequency drive T1 must be disabled (the FWD/REV enable signal must be
switched off) before the contacts at S1 are opened.
WARNING
Never connect the DC1 variable frequency drive’s output
terminals U, V, and W to the power feed system (L1, L2, L3)!
Connecting the mains voltage to the output terminals can result
in the variable frequency drive being irreparably damaged.
