(3) Selecting the rated sensitivity current for the earth leakage circuit
breaker
When using the earth leakage circuit breaker with the inverter circuit, select its rated
sensitivity current as follows, independently of the PWM carrier frequency:
• Breaker for harmonic and surge
Rated sensitivity current:
I
∆n ≥ 10 × (lg1+Ign+lg2+lgm)
• Standard breaker
Rated sensitivity current:
I
∆n ≥ 10 × {lg1+lgn+3 × (lg2+lgm)}
lg1, lg2 : Leakage currents of cable
path during commercial
power supply operation
lgn : Leakage current of noise
filter on inverter input side
lgm : Leakage current of motor
during commercial power
supply operation
