Shielded cable
Strip the cable and fix it to the metal
plate by means of a metal saddle for
electrical work or equivalent.
9.1.3 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: EN 50178
Electronic equipment for use in power installations
Pollution level: 2 (5.2.15.2)
Overvoltage category: 3
200V class - 3.0mm (5.2.16.1)
400V class - 5.5mm (5.2.16.1)
EN 50178 applies to electrical equipment intended specially for use in power installations, and sets out the condi-
tions to be observed for electric shock prevention when designing, testing, manufacturing and installing electronic
equipment for use in power installations.
9.1.4 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) When installing the inverter outside the cabinet, provide a protective means for the inverter's wiring hole to
prevent workers from putting their fingers through the hole and touching an electrically-charged part in the
inverter.
(2) Do not connect two or more wires to the main circuit earth terminal of the inverter. If necessary, install an
additional earth terminal on the metal plate on which the inverter is installed and connect another cable to it.
Or install the EMC plate (attached as standard) and another cable connect to earth terminal on the EMC
plate. Refer to the table 10.1 for earth cable sizes.
(3) Install a non-fuse circuit breaker on the input side of the inverter.
