Disconnecting MOVs and
RFI Filter Capacitors
The Diode Bus Supply contains protective MOVs, and input filter and
common mode capacitors that are referenced to ground. To prevent damage,
the MOVs should be disconnected from ground if the Bus Supply is
installed on any non-solid grounded distribution system where the
line-to-ground voltages on any phase could exceed 125% of the nominal
line-to-line voltage. To disconnect these devices from ground, remove the
jumpers shown in Table 1.D
. Jumpers can be removed by carefully pulling
the jumper straight out. Solid and non-solid grounded systems are defined
in Table 1.E
.

and Grounding Guidelines for Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) AC Drives,

It is highly recommended to accurately determine the power source type and then configure appropriately.

When MOVs are disconnected, the power system must have its own transient protection to ensure known and
controlled voltages.
Benefits of Correct Power Source
Type Configuration
Solid Grounded
AC fed, solidly grounded
DC fed from passive rectifier which
has an AC source and solid ground
Connected UL compliance
Reduced electrical noise
Most stable operation
EMC compliance
Reduced voltage stress on
components and motor bearings
Non-Solid Grounded
AC fed ungrounded
Impedance grounded
High resistive ground
B phase ground
Regenerative unit (common DC bus
supply and brake)
DC fed from an active converter
Disconnected Helps avoid severe equipment
damage when ground fault occurs
!
ATTENTION: To avoid an electric shock hazard, verify that the
voltage on the bus capacitors has discharged before removing/
installing jumpers. Measure the DC bus voltage at the +DC and –
DC output terminals. The voltage must be zero.
