8) Wiring the external box and high power factor converter
Note:Terminals MC1, MC2 of the high power factor converter provide control signals for the inrush current
control circuit within the external box. Always connect these terminals with the external box. Otherwise,
the external box’s internal circuit will be damaged.
• The high power factor converter leaks current. To prevent an electric shock, always
ground the converter before starting operation (200V class: class D grounding,
grounding resistance 100 maximum, 400V class: class C grounding, grounding
resistance 10 maximum).
• To ground the high power factor converter, use the exclusive ground terminal. (Do
not use the screws in the casing, chassis, etc.)
• Use the thickest and shortest possible ground
cable that is equal to, or larger than the size
indicated in the right table. Ground the high
power factor converter at a point nearest to itself
and the inverter.
