Install the inverters so that you are compliant with local regulations for erecting and installing
low voltage systems.
DANGER
Danger to life through electric shock due to the residual charge of the DC link capacitors
Because of the DC link capacitors, a hazardous voltage is present for up to 5 minutes after
the power supply has been switched off.
Contact with live parts can result in death or serious injury.
• Do not open the protective covers or the terminal covers of the device until 5 minutes
have elapsed.
• Before starting any work, check that the system is in a voltage-free state by measuring
all terminals, also to ground.
• Ensure that the associated warning plate in the appropriate language is attached.
Note
Operating displays for inverter operation
If, when switching over
a function from ON to OFF, an LED or other similar display is not lit
or not active; this does not indicate that the device is switched
-off or in a no-current
condition.
Note
Safety devices
Install suitable protective equipment between the line supply
and inverter.
Specific technical data (Page 53)
To protect against indirectly touching part of the motor circuit of an inverter and to
automatically shut down in the case of a fault according to DIN EN 60364-4-41 (VDE 0100-
410). (http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/103474630)
