E6581611I-699.1.3 About the Low Voltage DirectiveThe Low Voltage Directive provides for the safety of machines and systems. All Toshiba inverters are CE-markedin accordance with the standard EN 50178 specified by the Low Voltage Directive, and can therefore be installedin machines or systems and imported without problem to European countries.Applicable standard: IEC61800-5-1Pollution level: 2Overvoltage category: 39.1.4 Measures to satisfy the Low Voltage DirectiveWhen incorporating the inverter into a machine or system, it is necessary to take the following measures so thatthe inverter satisfies the Low Voltage Directive.(1) Install the inverter in a cabinet and ground the inverter enclosure. When doing maintenance, be extremelycareful not to put your fingers into the inverter through a wiring hole and touch a charged part, which mayoccur depending on the model and capacity of the inverter used.(2) Connect earth wiring to the earth terminal on the EMC plate. Or install the EMC plate (attached asstandard) and another cable connect to earth terminal on the EMC plate. Refer to the table in 10.1 fordetails about earth cable sizes. A minimum wire size of 10mm2 may be required to meet standards limitingleakage current.(3) Install a non-fuse circuit breaker or a fuse on the input side of the inverter. (Refer to section 10.1 and 9.2.3)9.2 Compliance with UL Standard and CSA StandardThis inverter that conform to the UL Standard and CSA Standard based on the rated current of the nameplatehave the UL/CSA mark on the nameplate.9.2.1 Compliance with InstallationA UL certificate was granted on the assumption that the inverter would be installed in a cabinet. Therefore, installthe inverter in a cabinet and if necessary, take measures to maintain the ambient temperature (temperature in thecabinet) within the specified temperature range. (Refer to section 1.4.4)9.2.2 Compliance with ConnectionUse the UL conformed cables (Rating 75 °C or more, Use the copper conductors only.) to the main circuitterminals (R/L1, S/L2, S/L2/N, T/L3, U/T1, V/T2, W/T3).For instruction in the United States, Integral solid state short circuit protection does not provide branch circuitprotection. Branch circuit protection must be provided in accordance with the National Electrical Code and anyadditional local codes.
