Before You Apply Power to Frames 7...15 and 7L

Before you place a frame 7…15 and 7L drive, bus supply, or common bus inverter into operation after a repair, follow these steps.
ATTENTION:
Risk of injury or death exists.
To avoid an electric shock hazard, verify that there is no AC input and DC bus voltage before servicing. Remove power and wait five minutes before you open the cabinet door. Use the testpoints provided to take these measurements:
  • Verify that there is no AC input voltage present using the R/L1, S/L2, and T/L3 testpoint sockets in the input bay by measuring L to L and L to GND.
  • Verify that there is no AC input voltage present using the R, S, and T testpoint sockets in the input bay by measuring L to L and L to GND.
  • Verify that there is no DC bus voltage present using the +DC to -DC testpoints in the input bay by measuring +DC to -DC, +DC to GND, and -DC to GND.
  1. For applicable products, open the protective caps (A) on the testpoints.
  2. For regenerative drives and bus supplies, measure the AC input and DC bus voltage at the following testpoint sockets (B) in the input bay to verify that there is no voltage present:
    • Use the circuit breaker output (CB1 SEC) testpoints R/L1, S/L2, and T/L3 to measure L to L and L to chassis GND.
    • Use the fused disconnect output (FD1 SEC) testpoints R, S, and T to measure L to L and L to chassis GND.
    • Use the DC bus testpoints +DC and –DC to measure +DC to –DC, +DC to chassis GND, and –DC to chassis GND.

  3. For common bus inverters, use the DC bus testpoints +DC and –DC on the front of the power modules to measure the DC bus voltage of all power modules and verify that there is no voltage present on the bus capacitors. Measure +DC to –DC, +DC to chassis GND, and –DC to chassis GND.

  4. For drives and bus supplies, measure the 240V AC control voltage at the appropriate terminals:
    • For frames 7 and 7L drives and bus supplies, measure terminals L and N on terminal block TB3.

    • For frames 8…15 drives and bus supplies, in the input bay, measure terminals L and N on terminal block TB2.

    • For control bays, measure terminal L on FH2-2 and terminal N on terminal block TB4.

  5. For all products, in the frames 7 and 7L enclosure and frame 8…15 input bay perform phase to ground resistance tests to verify that there are no shorts on the following locations:
    • Use the circuit breaker output (CB1 SEC) testpoints R/L1, S/L2, and T/L3 to measure L to chassis GND.
    • Use the fused disconnect output (FD1 SEC) testpoints R, S, and T to measure L to chassis GND.
    • Use the DC bus testpoints +DC and –DC to measure +DC to chassis GND, and –DC to chassis GND.
  6. For all products, in the frames 7and 7L enclosure and frame 8…15 power bay perform phase to ground resistance tests to verify that there are no shorts on the following locations:
    • Use the DC bus testpoints +DC and –DC on the front of the power modules to measure +DC to chassis GND, and –DC to chassis GND.
  7. When you have completed your measurements, replace the protective caps on the testpoints.
  8. If the measured value of any resistance test is less than 1 kΩ, troubleshoot to find the short, correct the problem, and repeat step 4.
    IMPORTANT: The minimum inside bend radius for fiber-optic cable is 50 mm (2 in.). Any bends with a shorter inside radius can permanently damage the fiber-optic cable. Signal attenuation increases as inside bend radius is decreased.

  9. For any module or component that has been removed and reinstalled, complete the following:
    • Verify that all hardware connections have been replaced and are properly torqued.
    • If applicable, verify that all fiber-optic cables are connected at both ends and properly secured and supported by cable ties along their entire length when routed between enclosures.
    • Verify that all interconnection wire harnesses are connected at both ends and properly supported by cable ties along their entire length when routed between enclosures.
  10. When service has been completed on the control pod, verify that all fiber-optic, and control power and I/O wires are connected and properly secured and supported by cable ties along their entire length when routed between enclosures.
