1.1.4 AC Reactor Specifications
Reactors, both as input (line) and output (load) devices, protect variable frequency drives (VFD), motors, and other
load devices against excessive voltage and current.
The following guidelines may help determine input and output reactor requirements:
• Install an input reactor if the power source is greater than 500kVA.
• Ensure the VFD-to-motor wiring distance is less than 150 ft (45.7 m) unless appropriate reactors, filters, and/or
Inverter Duty motor is used.
• Install an output reactor if a device, such as a power limit switch, is used to disconnect the motor from the VFD.
• Install one output reactor per VFD for a multiple-VFD arrangement requiring reactor protection.
• For a multiple VFD arrangement, an input reactor for each VFD is recommended for optimal protection.
However, if the VFDs are within two VFD sizes of each other, a single input reactor can be used. The reactor
must be rated at amperage equal to or greater than the sum of the amperage for all the VFDs.
