Main circuit terminal specifications
3.2.2
Cables and wiring length
(1) Cable sizes etc., of the main control circuit terminals and earth (ground) terminals
Select the recommended cable size to ensure that a voltage drop will be 2% max.
If the wiring distance is long between the inverter and motor, a main circuit cable voltage drop will cause the motor torque to
decrease especially at the output of a low frequency.
The following table indicates a selection example for the wiring length of 20m (65.61feet).
z
Three-phase 200V class (when input power supply is 220V)
z
Three-phase 400V class (when input power supply is 440V)
z
Single-phase 200V class (when input power supply is 220V)
z
Single-phase 100V class (when input power supply is 100V)
