Checking the insulation of the assembly
Drive
Do not make any voltage tolerance or insulation resistance tests on any part of the drive as
testing can damage the drive. Every drive has been tested for insulation between the main
circuit and the chassis at the factory. Also, there are voltage-limiting circuits inside the
drive which cut down the testing voltage automatically.
Input cable
Check the insulation of the input cable according to local regulations before connecting it
to the drive.
Motor and motor cable
Check the insulation of the motor and motor cable as follows:
1. Check that the motor cable is disconnected from the drive output terminals T1/U2,
T2/V2 and T3/W2.
2. Measure the insulation resistance between each phase conductor and the Protective
Earth conductor using a measuring voltage of 1000 V DC. The insulation resistance of
an ABB motor must exceed 100 Mohm (reference value at 25 °C or 77 °F). For the
insulation resistance of other motors, consult the manufacturer's instructions. Note:
Moisture inside the motor casing will reduce the insulation resistance. If you suspect
moisture, dry the motor and repeat the measurement.
