Wiring an External Alarm to a VFD66 Control 

Some models of the VFD66 controls feature an alarm 
output. The Metal Oxide Silicon Field Effect Transistor 
(MOSFET) alarm output activates when a permanent 
fault condition occurs. See Table 12, Figure 3, and 
Figure 7.

Wiring VFD66 Input and Output Power 

Select wire size for field wiring based on a wire 
insulation temperature resistance rating of 167

°

(75

°

C), with a maximum wire size of 12 AWG. Use 

only stranded copper wire, rated for at least 600 volts. 
Maximum terminal tightening torque for all VFD66 
controls electrical terminals is 5 lb·in (0.565 N·m). 

 

 

 

Ensure that the motor(s) and VFD66 control are 
securely and adequately grounded. Use the two 
ground connection terminals on the conduit entry 
bracket. (See Figure 3.) Use a ground connection 
terminal similar to AMP Part Number 34162 for 
16-14 AWG wire size or AMP Part Number 322455 for 
12-10 AWG wire size. 

Wiring Input Power 

!

  CAUTION:  Risk of Property Damage. 

Ensure that the power source conforms to the 
requirements of the equipment. Failure to use a 
correct power source may result in permanent 
damage to the equipment.

 

 

IMPORTANT: 

Wiring line-voltage input power to the 

wrong terminal block will damage the VFD66 control. 
Wire input power ONLY to Terminal Block 1 (TB1).

 

The input line-voltage supply power to L1, L2, and L3 
(Terminal Block 1) must be fused. Use fuses sized for 
250% of the input current rating of the VFD66 control. 
For example, if a VDF66 control is rated at 4 amperes 
input current, use a 10-ampere fuse. Do not use fuses 
with an extremely fast-opening characteristic (rectifier 
fuses). 

Wiring Output Power 

IMPORTANT: 

The output phase rotation on TB2 at 

T1(U), T2(V), T3(W) is ABC. If the motor rotation is 
incorrect, interchange any two motor leads on TB2. 
Do not make changes to the input power supply 
wiring.

 

The length of output power wires between the 
VFD66 control (TB2) and the motor must not exceed 
50 ft (15 m). 

Emissions Compliance 

If the VFD66 control is used in commercial or 
residential applications, FCC and DOC compliance 
may require the addition of the items in Table 3 to 
reduce electronic noise emissions. Installation of the 
parts listed  is required for EU Directive Compliance 
(CE mark):
