6.5 How to Check Power Components

Before checking the power components, be sure to disconnect AC Input supply and wait until the Main Electrolytic Capacitors (DCP-DCN) are discharged to safe voltage levels.

1)Disconnect the power input line (R, S, T) and the inverter output to the motor (U, V, W).

2)Verify whether the inverter terminal R, S, T, U, V, W, B1, B2 is shorted or open by changing the polarity of the tester.

3)Verify capacitor has discharged before testing.

4)The tester should display several mega-ohms when open. The tester can display terminal is shorted for a short time and then display several mega-ohms because of the electrolytic capacitor. The tester should display 1 ~ 10 when terminal is shorted. If all measured values are about the same, individual modules are OK.

4) Diode module and IGBT module checking points:
