2. About the low-voltage directive
The low-voltage directive provides for the safety of machines and systems. All Toshiba inverters are CE-marked
in accordance with the standard EN 50178 specified by the low-voltage directive, and can therefore be installed in
machines or systems and imported without problem to European countries.
Applicable standard: IEC61800-5-1
Pollution level: 2
Overvoltage category: 3
3. Measures to satisfy the low-voltage directive
When incorporating the inverter into a machine or system, it is necessary to take the following measures so that
the inverter satisfies the low-voltage directive.
(1)
Install the inverter in a cabinet and ground the inverter enclosure. When doing maintenance, be extremely
careful not to put your fingers into the inverter through a wiring hole and touch a charged part, which may
occur depending on the model and capacity of the inverter used.
(2)
Refer to the table in 9.1 for details about earth cable sizes.
(3)
Install a non-fuse circuit breaker or a fuse on the input side of the inverter. (Refer to section 9.1)
(4)
Use shielded power cables, such as inverter output cables, and shielded control cables. Route the cables
and wires so as to minimize their lengths. Keep a distance between the power cable and the control cable
and between the input and output wires of the power cable. Do not route them in parallel or bind them
together, instead cross at right angle.
