3.1 Commissioning the inverter

3.1.2Switching off and disconnecting the power supply

The entire system must be disconnected from the power supply before test and maintenance work can be carried out in the containers. Carry out these tasks in the sequence given below:

1.Press the OFF key briefly on the control panel of every inverter.

2.For reasons of safety, also press the Fast Stop button (if one is installed) in the inverter room.

3.Disconnect the external power supply (most commonly in the AC distribution cabinet) by opening the fuse switch disconnector or by switching off the miniature circuit breaker.

4.Open the AC-side and DC-side fuse switch disconnectors in all inverters and remove the fuses, including the fuse holder, or remove the fuse cartridge with a fuse tong. This means that the inverter cannot be switched on again (remember the five safety rules).

DANGER

The AC and DC connections are still live externally!

5.In order to disconnect the AC end completely from the power supply, the relevant medium-voltage transformer must be switched off at the medium-voltage switchgear. After switching off, open the medium-voltage isolator and close the medium-voltage grounding switch. The machine switching operations on the medium-voltage components must be performed via the power supply company or an authorized person.

6.In order to disconnect the DC end completely from the power supply, all relevant junction boxes of the generator and coupling boxes (if installed) must be disconnected. The disconnectors in the generator junction boxes and/or coupling boxes (if installed) can be switched under load. In contrast, fuse switch disconnectors must not be switched under load. Likewise, fuse cartridges in fuse holders must not be removed under load.

DANGER

Fuse switch disconnectors in the inverters and junction boxes must not be switched under load! Do not remove fuse cartridges when they are under load!
