5.9 Risk for the connected frequency inverters in the case of a DC
link short-circuit
When a short-circuit or ground fault occurs in the DC link (in the DC link
coupling or within a frequency inverter), there is a risk that all of the
frequency inverters, connected to the DC link, will be destroyed. This is the
reason that when the drive system is engineered, this aspect should be
carefully taken into account. The number of frequency inverters within a DC
link group should be kept as low as possible.
5.10 Operation on IT line supplies
The frequency inverter without integrated EMC filter can also be used in a
DC link group connected to an IT line supply. In this case the Y capacitor of
the frequency inverter should be removed. A description is provided in the
Operating Instructions of the frequency inverter.
