Preventing overvoltage tripping of adjustable-speed drives
Inrush current, if not limited by impedances in the circuit, causes a rapid charging of the dc bus capacitor, resulting in an overvoltage on the dc bus of the ASD (Fig. 5). If the transient overvoltage on the dc bus exceeds the preset overvoltage trip level of the ASD, the overvoltage protection circuitry of the ASD trips the drive off line.
