The drive must be isolated from the supply, the input power turned off, and a 5‑minute wait is required before starting work. Verify discharge by measuring voltage between UDC+ and UDC‑, and apply temporary grounding.
The drive, motor, and adjoining equipment must be connected to a protective earth conductor sized according to safety regulations, with a minimum cross‑section of 10 mm² Cu or 16 mm² Al.
The minimum allowed bend radius for fibre optic cables is 35 mm (1.4 in.).
