3.4.1 Requirements
WARNING
EQUIPMENT HAZARD!
Rotating shafts and electrical equipment can be hazardous.
All electrical work must conform to national and local
electrical codes. It is strongly recommended that instal-
lation, start-up, and maintenance be performed only by
trained and qualified personnel. Failure to follow these
guidelines could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
WIRING ISOLATION!
Run input power, motor wiring and control wiring in three
separate metallic conduits or use separated shielded cable
for high frequency noise isolation. Failure to isolate power,
motor and control wiring could result in less than
optimum adjustable frequency drive and associated
equipment performance.
For your safety, comply with the following requirements.
•
Electronic controls equipment is connected to
hazardous AC line voltage. Extreme care should
be taken to protect against electrical hazards
when applying power to the unit.
•
Run motor cables from multiple adjustable
frequency drives separately. Induced voltage from
output motor cables run together can charge
equipment capacitors even with the equipment
turned off and locked out.
Overload and Equipment Protection
•
An electronically activated function within the
adjustable frequency drive provides overload
protection for the motor. The overload calculates
the level of increase to activate timing for the trip
(controller output stop) function. The higher the
current draw, the quicker the trip response. The
overload provides Class 20 motor protection. See
7 Warnings and Alarm for details on the trip
function.
•
Because the motor wiring carries high frequency
current, it is important that wiring for line power,
motor power, and control is run separately. Use
metallic conduit or separated shielded wire.
Failure to isolate power, motor, and control
wiring could result in less than optimum
equipment performance.
•
All adjustable frequency drives must be provided
with short-circuit and overcurrent protection.
Input fusing is required to provide this
protection, see Illustration 3.5. Fuses must be
provided by the installer as part of installation.
See maximum fuse ratings in 9.1.2 CE Compliance.
Illustration 3.5 Fuses
Wire Type and Ratings
•
All wiring must comply with local and national
regulations regarding cross-section and ambient
temperature requirements.
•
GE recommends that all power connections be
made with a minimum 167°F [75°C] rated copper
wire.
3.4.2 Grounding Requirements
WARNING
GROUNDING HAZARD!
For operator safety, it is important to ground drive
properly in accordance with national and local electrical
codes as well as instructions contained within these
instructions. Ground currents are higher than 3.5 mA.
Failure to ground drive properly could result in death or
serious injury.
NOTE
It is the responsibility of the user or certified electrical
installer to ensure correct grounding of the equipment in
accordance with national and local electrical codes and
standards.
•
Follow all local and national electrical codes to
ground electrical equipment properly.
•
Proper protective grounding for equipment with
ground currents higher than 3.5 mA must be
established, see Leakage Current (>3.5 mA)
•
A dedicatedground wire is required for input
power, motor power and control wiring
•
Use the clamps provided with on the equipment
for proper ground connections
Installation AF-650 GP Quick Guide
6DET-759A

•
Do not ground one drive to another in a “daisy
chain” fashion
•
Keep the ground wire connections as short as
possible
•
Use of high-strand wire to reduce electrical noise
is recommended
•
Follow the motor manufacturer wiring
requirements
3.4.2.1 Leakage Current (>3.5 mA)
Follow national and local codes regarding protective
grounding of equipment with a leakage current > 3.5 mA.
Drive technology implies high frequency switching at high
power. This will generate a leakage current in the ground
connection. A fault current in the drive at the output
power terminals might contain a DC component which can
charge the filter capacitors and cause a transient ground
current. The ground leakage current depends on various
system configurations including RFI filtering, shielded
motor cables, and drive power.
EN/IEC61800-5-1 (Power Drive System Product Standard)
requires special care if the leakage current exceeds 3.5m A.
Grounding must be reinforced in one of the following
ways:
•
Ground wire of at least 0.0155 in
2
[10mm
2
]
•
Two separate ground wires both complying with
the dimensioning rules
See EN 60364-5-54 § 543.7 for further information.
Using RCDs
Where residual current devices (RCDs), also known as
ground leakage circuit breakers (ELCBs), are used, comply
with the following:
Use RCDs of type B only which are capable of
detecting AC and DC currents
Use RCDs with an inrush delay to prevent faults
due to transient ground currents
Dimension RCDs according to the system configu-
ration and environmental considerations
3.4.2.2 Grounding Using Shielded Cable
Grounding clamps are provided for motor wiring (see
Illustration 3.6).
Illustration 3.6 Grounding with Shielded Cable
3.4.3 Motor Connection
WARNING
INDUCED VOLTAGE!
Run output motor cables from multiple adjustable
frequency drives separately. Induced voltage from output
motor cables run together can charge equipment
capacitors even with the equipment turned off and locked
out. Failure to run output motor cables separately could
result in death or serious injury.

Depending on the configuration of the
equipment, input power will be connected to the
line power input terminals or the input
disconnect.
•
Ground the cable in accordance with grounding
instructions provided in 3.4.2 Grounding
Requirements
•
All adjustable frequency drives may be used with
an isolated input source as well as with ground
reference power lines. When supplied from an
isolated line power source (IT line or floating
delta) or TT/TN-S power line with a grounded leg
(grounded delta), set 14-50 RFI Filter to OFF.
When off, the internal RFI filter capacitors
between the chassis and the intermediate circuit
are isolated to avoid damage to the intermediate
circuit and to reduce ground capacity currents in
accordance with IEC 61800-3.
3.4.5 Control Wiring
•
Isolate control wiring from high power
components in the adjustable frequency drive.
•
If the adjustable frequency drive is connected to
a thermistor, for PELV isolation, optional
thermistor control wiring must be reinforced/
double insulated. A 24 VDC supply voltage is
recommended.

3.4.5.3 Wiring to Control Terminals
Control terminal connectors can be unplugged from the
drive for ease of installation, as shown in Illustration 3.10.
1. Open the contact by inserting a small screwdriver
into the slot above or below the contact, as
shown in Illustration 3.12.
2. Insert the bared control wire into the contact.
3. Remove the screwdriver to fasten the control wire
into the contact.
4. Ensure the contact is firmly established and not
loose. Loose control wiring can be the source of
equipment faults or less than optimal operation.
Illustration 3.12 Connecting Control Wiring
3.4.5.4 Using Shielded Control Cables
Correct shielding
The preferred method in most cases is to secure control
and serial communication cables with shielding clamps
provided at both ends to ensure best possible high
frequency cable contact.
If the ground potential between the adjustable frequency
drive and the PLC is different, electric noise may occur that
will disturb the entire system. Solve this problem by fitting
an equalizing cable next to the control cable. Minimum
cable cross-section: 0.025 in
2
(16 mm
2)
.
50/60Hz ground loops
With very long control cables, ground loops may occur. To
eliminate ground loops, connect one end of the shield-to-
ground with a 100nF capacitor (keeping leads short).
Avoid EMC noise on serial communication
This terminal is grounded via an internal RC link. Use
twisted-pair cables to reduce interference between
conductors. The recommended method is shown below:
Alternatively, the connection to terminal 61 can be
omitted:
3.4.5.5 Control Terminal Functions

3.4.5.7 Terminal 37
Terminal 37 Safe Stop Function
The AF-650 GP and is available with safe stop functionality
via control terminal 37. Safe stop disables the control
voltage of the power semiconductors of the drive output
stage which in turn prevents generating the voltage
required to rotate the motor. When the Safe Stop (T37) is
activated, the drive issues an alarm, trips the unit, and
coasts the motor to a stop. Manual restart is required. The
safe stop function can be used for stopping the drive in
emergency stop situations. In the normal operating mode
when safe stop is not required, use the adjustable
frequency drive’s regular stop function instead. When
automatic restart is used – the requirements under ISO
12100-2 paragraph 5.3.2.5 must be fulfilled.
Liability Conditions
It is the responsibility of the user to ensure personnel
installing and operating the Safe Stop function:
•
Read and understand the safety regulations
concerning health and safety/accident prevention
•
Understand the generic and safety guidelines
given in this description and the extended
description in the Design Guide
•
Have a good knowledge of the generic and safety
standards applicable to the specific application
User is defined as: integrator, operator, servicing,
maintenance staff.
Standards
Use of safe stop on terminal 37 requires that the user
satisfies all provisions for safety including relevant laws,
regulations and guidelines. The optional safe stop function
complies with the following standards.
EN 954-1: 1996 Category 3
IEC 60204-1: 2005 category 0 – uncontrolled stop
IEC 61508: 1998 SIL2
IEC 61800-5-2: 2007 – safe torque off (STO)

Protective Measures
•
Safety engineering systems may only be installed
and commissioned by qualified and skilled
personnel
•
The unit must be installed in an IP54 cabinet or
in an equivalent environment
•
The cable between terminal 37 and the external
safety device must be short circuit protected
according to ISO 13849-2 table D.4
•
If any external forces influence the motor axis
(e.g. suspended loads), additional measures (e.g. a
safety holding brake) are required in order to
eliminate hazards.
Safe Stop Installation and Set-up
WARNING
SAFE STOP FUNCTION!
The safe stop function does NOT isolate AC line voltage to
the drive or auxiliary circuits. Perform work on electrical
parts of the drive or the motor only after isolating the AC
line voltage supply and waiting the length of time
specified under Safety in this manual. Failure to isolate the
AC line voltage supply from the unit and waiting the time
specified could result in death or serious injury.
•
It is not recommended to stop the drive by using
the Safe Torque Off function. If a running drive is
stopped by using the function, the unit will trip
and stop by coasting. If this is not acceptable,
e.g. causes danger, the drive and machinery must
be stopped using the appropriate stopping mode
before using this function. Depending on the
application, a mechanical brake may be required.
•
Concerning synchronous and permanent magnet
motor adjustable frequency drives in case of a
multiple IGBT power semiconductor failure: In
spite of the activation of the Safe torque off
function, the drive system can produce an
alignment torque which maximally rotates the
motor shaft by 180/p degrees. p denotes the pole
pair number.
•
This function is suitable for performing
mechanical work on the drive system or affected
area of a machine only. It does not provide
electrical safety. This function should not be used
as a control for starting and/or stopping the
drive.
The following requirements have to be met to perform a
safe installation of the drive:
1. Remove the jumper wire between control
terminals 37 and 12 or 13. Cutting or breaking
the jumper is not sufficient to avoid short-
circuiting. (See jumper on Illustration 3.14.)
2. Connect an external Safety monitoring relay via a
NO safety function (the instruction for the safety
device must be followed) to terminal 37 (safe
stop) and either terminal 12 or 13 (24V DC). The

4 Start Up and Functional Testing
4.1 Pre-start
4.1.1 Safety Inspection
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE!
If input and output connections have been connected
improperly, there is potential for high voltage on these
terminals. If power leads for multiple motors are
improperly run through the same conduit, there is a
potential for leakage current to charge capacitors within
the drive, even when disconnected from line power input.
For initial start-up, make no assumptions about power
components. Follow pre-start procedures. Failure to follow
pre-start procedures could result in personal injury or
damage to equipment.
1. Input power to the unit must be OFF and locked
out. Do not rely on the drive disconnect switches
for input power isolation.
2. Verify that there is no voltage on input terminals
L1 (91), L2 (92), and L3 (93), phase-to-phase and
phase-to-ground,
3. Verify that there is no voltage on output
terminals 96 (U), 97 (V), and 98 (W), phase-to-
phase and phase-to-ground.
4. Confirm continuity of the motor by measuring
ohm values on U-V (96-97), V-W (97-98), and W-U
(98-96).
5. Check for proper grounding of the drive as well
as the motor.
6. Inspect the drive for loose connections on
terminals.
7. Record the following motor nameplate data:
power, voltage, frequency, full load current, and
nominal speed. These values are needed to
program motor nameplate data later.
