DC supply and brake resistor cables
Vacon frequency converters can optionally be equipped with terminals for DC supply and with an
external brake resistor. These terminals are marked with B-, B+/R+ and R-. The DC bus connection
is made to terminals B– and B+ and the brake resistor connection to R+ and R– on the converter
module. The converter module terminals can also optionally be wired to customer terminals in the
cabinet.
Make sure that the converter is equipped with a brake chopper before connecting a brake
resistor.
Do not connect the brake resistor between the terminals B- and B+ as this will damage the
drive.
6.2.3
Control cable
For information on control cables see chapter 7.2. The control cables are routed down to the bottom
of the cabinet in the left inner side of the cabinet.
6.2.4
Cable and fuse sizes, 380-500V units
The table below shows typical cable sizes and types that can be used with the converter. The final
selection should be made according to local regulations, cable installation conditions and cable
specification.
