3.3.15 Motor Insulation
For motor cable lengths ≤ the maximum cable length
listed in the General Specifications tables, 5.1.1 Cable
Lengths and Cross Sections, the following motor insulation
ratings are recommended because the peak voltage can be
up to twice the DC link voltage, 2.8 times the mains
voltage, due to transmission line effects in the motor
cable. If a motor has lower insulation rating, it is
recommended to use a dU/dt or sine wave filter.

3.3.16 Motor Bearing Currents
All motors installed with FC 302 250 kW or higher power
drives should have NDE (Non-Drive End) insulated bearings
installed to eliminate circulating bearing currents. To
minimize DE (Drive End) bearing and shaft currents proper
grounding of the frequency converter, motor, driven
machine, and motor to the driven machine is required.
Standard Mitigation Strategies:
1. Use an insulated bearing
2. Apply rigorous installation procedures
- Ensure the motor and load motor are
aligned
- Strictly follow the EMC Installation
guideline
- Reinforce the PE so the high frequency
impedance is lower in the PE than the
input power leads
- Provide a good high frequency
connection between the motor and the
frequency converter for instance by
screened cable which has a 360°
connection in the motor and the
frequency converter
- Make sure that the impedance from
frequency converter to building ground
is lower that the grounding impedance
of the machine. This can be difficult for
pumps
- Make a direct earth connection between
the motor and load motor
3. Lower the IGBT switching frequency
