Leakage Breakers
Select leakage breakers designed for protection against grounding faults.
Because switching takes place inside the Servo Drives, high-frequency current leaks from the
switching elements of the Servo Drive, the armature of the motor, and the cables.
High-frequency breakers with surge withstand capability do not detect high-frequency current,
preventing the breaker from operating with high-frequency leakage current.
When using a general-purpose leakage breaker, use three times the sum of the leakage current
given in the following table as a reference value.
When selecting leakage breakers, remember to add the leakage current from devices other than
the Servomotor, such as machines using a switching power supply, noise filters, inverters, and so
on. To prevent malfunction due to inrush current, we recommend using a leakage breaker of ten
times the total of all current values.
The leakage breaker is activated at 50% of the rated current. Allow leeway when selecting a
leakage breaker.
For details on leakage breakers, refer to the manufacturer’s catalog.
The following table shows the Servomotor leakage current for each Servo Drive model.
Note 1. The above leakage current is for cases when Servomotor power cable length is 3 meters or shorter.
(The leakage current depends on the power cable length and the insulation.)
Note 2. The resistor plus capacitor method provides a yardstick to measure the leakage current that may flow
through the human body when the Servomotor or Servo Drive is not grounded correctly.
The above leakage current is for normal temperature and humidity. (The leakage current depends on the
temperature and humidity.)
