Appendix: Resistor braking 407
WARNING! Never use a brake resistor with a resistance below the minimum
value specified for the particular drive. The drive and the internal chopper are
not able to handle the overcurrent caused by the low resistance.
Selecting the brake resistor cables
Use a shielded cable with the conductor size specified in section Power cable sizes
and fuses on page 377. The maximum length of the resistor cable(s) is 5 m (16 ft).
