Connecting the Kinetix 5500 Drive System
Chapter 5
Determine the Input Power
Configuration
Before wiring input power to your Kinetix 5500 system, you must determine the
type of input power you are connecting to. The drive is designed to operate in
both grounded and ungrounded environments.
Grounded Power Configurations
The grounded (WYE) power configuration lets you ground your three-phase
power at a neutral point. This type of grounded power configuration is preferred.
Figure 35 - Grounded Power Configuration (WYE Secondary)
The Kinetix 5500 drive has factory-installed grounding screws for grounded
power distribution.
Refer to

for input power
interconnect diagrams.
ATTENTION:
Ungrounded and corner-grounded input power configurations are
permitted, but you must remove the ground screws.
Refer to
Removing the Grounding Screws in Ungrounded Power Configurations
for more information.

IMPORTANT
If you determine that you have grounded power distribution in your plant, you
do not need to remove the grounding screws.
