5.5 Connecting the Motor
WARNING
INDUCED VOLTAGE
Induced voltage from output motor cables that run together can charge equipment capacitors, even with the
equipment turned o and locked out. Failure to run output motor cables separately or use shielded cables could result
in death or serious injury.
•
Comply with local and national electrical codes for cable sizes. For maximum wire sizes, see chapter 10.5 Cable
Specications.
•
Follow motor manufacturer wiring requirements.
•
Motor wiring knockouts or access panels are provided at the base of IP21 (NEMA1/12) and higher units.
•
Do not wire a starting or pole-changing device (for example Dahlander motor or slip ring asynchronous motor)
between the drive and the motor.
Procedure
1. Strip a section of the outer cable insulation.
2. Position the stripped wire under the cable clamp, establishing mechanical xation and electrical contact between
the cable shield and ground.
3. Connect the ground wire to the nearest grounding terminal in accordance with the grounding instructions
provided in chapter 5.4 Connecting to Ground, see Illustration 5.4.
4. Connect the 3-phase motor wiring to terminals 96 (U), 97 (V), and 98 (W), see Illustration 5.4.
5. Tighten the terminals in accordance with the information provided in chapter 10.8 Fastener Tightening Torques.
