3.1.3
Earthing and earth fault protection
The AC drive must always be earthed with an earthing conductor connected to the earthing terminal
marked with:
The touch current of the AC drive exceeds 3.5 mA
AC
. According to EN61800-5-1, one or more of the
following conditions for the associated protective circuit shall be satisfied:
A fixed connection and
•
the
protective earthing conductor
shall have a cross-sectional area of at least 10 mm
2
Cu
or 16 mm
2
Al, or
•
an automatic disconnection of the supply in case of discontinuity of the
protective earthing
conductor
, or
•
provision of an additional terminal for a second
protective earthing conductor
of the same
cross-sectional area as the original
protective earthing conductor
.
The cross-sectional area of every protective earthing conductor which does not form part of the
supply cable enclosure shall, in any case, be no less than:
•
2.5 mm
2
if mechanical protection is provided or
•
4 mm
2
if mechanical protection is not provided. For cord-connected equipment, provisions
shall be made so that the protective earthing conductor in the cord shall, in the case of
failure of the strain-relief mechanism, be the last conductor to be interrupted.
However, always follow the local regulations for the minimum size of the protective earthing con-
ductor.
NOTE!
Due to the high capacitive currents present in the AC drive, fault current protective switches
may not function properly.
CAUTION!

The values above are valid only if the protective earthing conductor is made of the same metal as
the phase conductors. If this is not so, the cross-sectional area of the protective earthing
conductor shall be determined in a manner which produces a conductance equivalent to that
which results from the application of this table.
Do not perform any voltage withstand tests
on any part of the AC drive. There is a
certain procedure according to which the test shall be performed. Ignoring this
procedure may result in a damaged product.
