– unsuitable motor
The DC-link voltage has exceeded
the limits.
– delay time too short
– high overvoltage peaks in the
power supply

the sum of the motor phases does not
equal zero.
– Insulation failure in cables or motor
Charging switch open, when START
command was given.
– malfunction
– component failure
The supplementary board has created
a stop signal.
Increased overload
Defective component
The diagnostic program of the
