2.5. The 7 steps that save lives

ABB’s 7 steps that save lives concept is a series of actions that must take place prior to
commencing work on or near electrical installations.
1) Prepare for the work: do an on-site risk assessment or job hazard analysis
that considers the limits of approach for shock and arc-flash.
• Be in possession of a clear work order to execute the work.
• When required, the access or work permit is to be obtained by a person

who is authorized for the specific electrical system.
• Engage the person responsible for electrical equipment or system to

review single-line diagrams, schematics, switching plans, etc.
• Ensure the competence of workers.
• Check for proper tools for the job.
• Determine and select the proper arc-rated Personal Protective Equipment

(PPE).
• Decide of the appropriate work methods and initiate the Permit To Work
(PTW) process.
2) Clearly identify the work location and equipment.
• Use your senses (sight, hearing and smell) to identify problem areas.
• Define the work area via barriers and barricading and label equipment.
• Avoid distractions such as talking or texting on the phone.
3a. Disconnect all sources of supply.
• If ABB is responsible for switching and it cannot be done remotely, then

the person performing the switching must be properly trained and
wearing the proper PPE identified in step 1.
• The Person in Charge of Work (PICW) must ensure that switching is

performed in the proper manner by witnessing it from a safe distance if
present on site or by engaging the person responsible for switching to
identify all isolation points.
3b.Secure against reconnection by applying Lockout/Tagout.
• Apply Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) to the energy isolation device and if

multiple energy isolation devices are involved, then Group LOTO must be
implemented with the PICW serving as the Group LOTO Leader.

4) Verify the absence of operating voltage: always test before you touch!
Only use properly rated and inspected voltage detection devices and wear
proper PPE identified in step 1:
• Test voltage detection device
• Test for voltage
• Test voltage detection device
It is highly important that the voltage detection device is tested on a known

voltage source such as a Proving Unit or by performing an internal self-test,
according to the manufacturer’s instructions, before and after testing for the
absence of operating voltage.
5) Carry out earthing and short-circuiting.
• Close and lock the earthing switch if the electrical equipment is designed
for this purpose or apply portable equipment for earthing and short-
circuiting.
If this is carried out by the customer, then the PICW must ensure that this
equipment is properly earthed as a part of the integration/verification
and during step 7 when the PICW walks the PTW.
6) Protect against adjacent live parts and take special precautions when
close to bare conductors.
• Determine minimum approach distances, apply screening or shrouding,

and when applicable, padlock both cable and busbar shutters.
• If working within the restricted approach boundary or vicinity zone where

inadvertent movement could cause contact with live parts, special
precautions must be employed, such as the use of the properly rated
insulated gloves and tools.
7) Complete the permit to work and “Walk the Permit”.
• Check isolation points
• Verify that all circuits are isolated and secured
• Ensure all parties are integrated with the Lockout/Tagout
• Check the earths are properly applied
• Answer specific questions from the working group
• Ensure the work can proceed without danger
• Complete and verify the “Permit to Work”

2.6. Possible residual risks

Residual risks must be considered by the drive system integrator and/or plant owner when
assessing the hazards of the equipment to personnel. The following risks can pose a hazard
to drive system personnel:
1) Electric power equipment generates electro-magnetic fields which can

cause a hazard to people with metal implants and / or a pacemaker.
2) Drive system components can move unintentionally when being

commissioned, operated, or serviced due to:
• Operation of the equipment outside the scope of the specifications
• Incorrectly assembled or installed equipment
• Wrongly connected cables
• External influence on, or damage of the equipment
• Wrong parameter settings
• Software errors
• Faulty hardware
3) Hazardous touch voltages can be present on drive system components,

which can be caused by:
• External influence on, or damage of the equipment
• Induced voltages by external equipment
• Condensation on equipment components, or pollution
• Faulty hardware
4) High temperatures, noise, particles, or gases can be emitted from drive

system components caused by:
• External influence on or damage of the equipment
• Wrong parameter settings
• Software errors
• Faulty hardware
5) Hazardous substances can be emitted from drive system components, eg,

due to incorrect disposal of components.

2.7. Main circuit breaker protection device

The main circuit breaker (MCB) is a major protection device of the drive. If a serious fault
occurs in the drive, the MCB must disconnect the main power supply to the drive
immediately. The main power supply must be disconnected without delay on an open or trip
command from the drive to prevent hazard to the personnel and further damage to the
equipment. The MCB is located on the primary side of the converter transformer.

– SF6 circuit breakers
– Fused contactors or motor control centers
Dedicated protection relay

– Transformer or drive primary cable protection (DTL)
– Transformer protection (if applicable)
– Transformer secondary cable protection (if applicable)
– Backing up the drive protection

2.7.1. Safety and protection requirements

For safety and protection reasons, the MCB must meet the stipulated minimum
requirements of the specifications of ABB MV Drives. It is the system integrator's
responsibility to ensure that the minimum requirements are met. The minimum
requirements for the MCB are stated in this note and in the respective MCB specifications,
which are available for each medium voltage drive from ABB.
The safety requirements for the drive are based on the following standards:
– ISO 13849-1
– IEC 60204-1
2.7.2. Minimum requirements for MCB and MCB control

The following safety requirements are also in the MCB specifications for the drive:
– The MCB open and / or trip command has to be wired directly from the drive to the MCB.
• It is not permitted to wire the trip command through any PLC or DCS system if it is
not certified to meet SIL three-level requirements and to fulfill the timing
requirements outlined below.
• Opening of the MCB by the drive must be possible at any time. It is not permitted to
interrupt the open and / or trip command, eg, by a local-remote switch in the MCB.
– When the MCB is in service position, the drive must have exclusive control of closing the
MCB. Local closing of the MCB is not permitted.
– The maximum opening time of the MCB must never exceed the product- or project-
specific maximum time defined in the MCB specifications.
Typical maximum values for the drive are defined as follows:
– Maximum protection trip time: 120 ms
The maximum protection trip time is the maximum allowed breaking time (open and
arcing) of the breaking device after the open command has been initiated to prevent
further damage to the drive, such as diode failures.
– Maximum safety trip time: 250 ms
The maximum safety trip time is the maximum allowed time to ensure safe
disconnection of the main power supply to prevent any hazard to personnel.

2) Open and or trip command is set at the drive control output
3) No further damage to the drive
4) No hazard to personnel
5) Maximum protection trip time
6) Maximum safety trip time
In order to meet the stipulated safety requirements, ABB recommends one of the following:
– MCB is equipped with 2 independent opening coils
– MCB is equipped with an opening coil and an undervoltage coil for monitoring of the
control voltage
– Upstream protection coordination scheme is provided which uses the "breaker failure"
(ANSI 50BF) signal to automatically trip the upstream breaker, in case the MCB does not
open.
IMPORTANT! The upstream breaker must open within the maximum safety trip time
after a failure has occurred.
2.8. Maintenance recommendation

The MCB trip circuits should be checked annually.

3.3.1. Main power supply configurations

The drive is connected to the main power supply via a three-winding oil or dry-type
transformer.

3.3.2. Auxiliary power supply configurations

The total auxiliary power demand of the drive includes:
– Auxiliary power for the cooling system
– Auxiliary power for the control hardware and the gate units which are used to trigger the
power semiconductors
The total auxiliary power can be fed to the drive in the following ways:
– Through a common power supply
• The total auxiliary power is supplied to the drive by a three-phase AC power supply.
• If the power supply is interrupted, drive internal batteries provide a backup for the
control system, thus enabling the drive to ride-through and/or to perform a
controlled shutdown.
– Through separate power supplies
• The auxiliary power is supplied to the drive by a three-phase AC power supply and by
an UPS to a separate one-phase AC or DC input.
• Feeding the control power separately by an UPS has the advantage that the main
control hardware will remain energized, the full ride-through capabilities of the drive
can be used, and the communication to a higher-level control system will not be lost
in the event of an auxiliary power outage.
IMPORTANT! The power feed for the auxiliary supply must be protected with a suitable
circuit protection rated for the inrush current.
– For more information on the auxiliary power interface of the drive, see “Appendix D -
Wiring diagrams”.
– For information on the rated voltage(s) and current(s), see the rating plate of the drive.

3.4. Drive topology

This section describes the main design features and introduces the major power
electronics components of a typical drive.

3.4.2. Control and terminal compartment

The leftmost compartment of the drive divides into:
– Control compartment (1 in Fig. 3–5): contains the hardware of the control system of the
drive. For more information on the control hardware, see Chapter 4 Control system.
– Terminal compartment (2 in Fig. 3–5): contains the busbars for the feeder and motor
cables, the ground cable and the cable screens. A hinged bolted partition separates the
terminal compartment from the control compartment. For more information on cable
entry and cable connection, see Chapter 7 Electrical installation.

3) Filter choke

3.4.4. Grounding switch

The grounding switch is a safety device that enables safe access to the medium voltage
compartments of the drive.
When the switch is in position grounded, the DC link of the drive is connected to the PE
ground busbar.
The grounding switch is electro-mechanically interlocked with a discharge monitoring

circuit that prevents closing of the switch while the DC link capacitors are still charged.
Grounding the drive is only possible after the main power supply has been disconnected,
and the DC link has discharged. When the voltage is below 50 V (DC), the lamp grounding
switch unlocked (1 in Fig. 3–7) on the door of the control compartment lights up, and the
grounding switch can be turned to position grounded (2 in Fig. 3–7).
Figure 3–7 Grounding switch
1) Grounding switch unlocked lamp is on 2) Grounding switch in grounded position
When the grounding switch is in position grounded, the doors of the medium voltage
compartments are released, and the doors can be opened.
3.4.5. Filter
The filter at the drive output reduces the harmonic content of the motor voltage and
generates a nearly sinusoidal motor-friendly voltage waveform. The filter also eliminates all
high dv/dt effects. Therefore, standard motors can be used, and voltage reflections in the
motor cables are eliminated.
Output voltage: 4.16 kV

Output frequency: 60 Hz
Figure 3–8 Voltage and current waveforms at drive output

3.4.6. Rectifier and inverter compartment

The compartment contains the rectifier, the inverter and the protection IGCTs.
Figure 3–9 Rectifier and inverter compartment
1) Inverter phase U 4) Protection IGCTs

2) Inverter phase V 5) Rectifiers
3) Inverter phase W
3.4.6.1. Rectifier
The diode rectifier converts the AC voltage of the main power supply and connects its
output to the minus, neutral point, and plus side of the DC link.
Depending on the harmonics requirements for the main power supply, the drive is equipped
with a 12-pulse or a 24-pulse rectifier.
3.4.6.2. Protection IGCTs

The drive features a fuseless protection design. The IGCTs are placed between the rectifier
and the DC link. If necessary, the IGCTs directly isolate the inverter from the main power
supply.
3.4.6.3. Inverter
The inverter converts the DC voltage to the required AC motor voltage and frequency.

Each phase of the three-phase inverter consists of a combination of four IGCTs and two NP
diodes for three-level switching operation. The output is switched between positive DC
voltage, neutral point (NP) and negative DC voltage. Hence, the drive can control the output
voltage and the frequency continuously from zero to maximum using direct torque control.
For more information, see Section 4.2.2.4 Direct torque control.

3.4.7. Optional Braking Chopper

The optional braking chopper uses resistor braking to provide motor braking and shorter
deceleration times, eg, for:
– Reduction of coasting down time, eg, for conveyor belts, fans, and pumps
– Emergency stops
The braking chopper cabinet connects to the right side of the drive as well as to the braking
resistors, which are external to the ACS1000W and not part of the product scope.

3.4.7.1. Control principle

If the DC-link voltage rises above a preset limit, the control system of the ACS1000W
automatically activates the braking chopper. A rise of the DC-link voltage can be caused by
a machine, feeding into the DC link or by an increase of the voltage in the rectifier of the
ACS1000W.
Figure 3–13 Braking chopper design
1) Semiconductor stack
3.4.7.2. Monitoring and protective functions
Current monitoring
Input currents of the braking chopper are monitored for overcurrent and imbalance in order
to detect any defective component in the circuit. The current can become imbalanced if one
of the IGCTs conducts a current permanently or if an IGCT fails to be switched on.
If a short-circuit or an imbalance is detected in the braking chopper, the drive is shut down.
Thermal protection
The braking chopper and the braking resistors are monitored for over-temperature by
the ACS1000W.
In addition, an external thermal protection device can be connected to a digital input. As

soon as the temperature of the braking resistors exceeds the response threshold of the
external thermal protection device, the operation of the braking chopper is disabled and an
alarm message is displayed on the control panel of the ACS1000W. Braking is then only
possible when the temperature falls below the threshold.

3.4.7.3. External cooling for braking resistors

A digital output and a digital input can be used to control and monitor an external cooling
fan or pump for the braking resistors.
3.4.7.4. Braking chopper ratings

The maximum braking power is limited to 60% of the nominal power of the ACS1000W and
must not be greater than 2.5 MW (Table 3–1).
The relation between maximum braking energy (Ebrake max) and maximum chopper braking
power (Pchopper max) is as follows:
E brake max  MWs  = P chopper  max   MW   30 sec (1)
After a braking period of 30 s with maximum braking power (2.5 MW), a cooling time of one
hour is required. If two braking sequences of 30 s are necessary within an hour, the
maximum braking power has to be reduced to 50% of the maximum possible braking
power.

3.4.8. Cooling systems

See the user manual for the water cooling unit of the drive in “Appendix A - Additional
manuals”.
3.5. Cabinet design

The riveted and folded cabinet construction of the drive ensures a strong, flexible and self-
supporting framework. The construction avoids the need for additional skeletal support
and provides effective protection against electromagnetic emissions.
EMC has been achieved by applying a cabinet design consisting of folded, galvanized sheet
metal plates (approximately 2 mm thick) and minimizing the space between the rivets. The
inside walls of the cabinet are not painted, because paint tends to reduce the effectiveness
of metallic bonding which is important for successful EMC.
Accordingly, only the front of the cabinet is painted while all other walls are galvanized.
However, the cabinet can be ordered optionally with the whole of the outside painted. EMC
performance is further enhanced by the use of metal cable ducts.

3.6. Door locking system

To ensure safety and to prevent the doors being opened unintentionally, all doors are
lockable. The doors of compartments where medium voltages are present during operation
(2 and 3 in Fig. 3–14) are electro-mechanically secured.
Additionally, the doors of the medium voltage compartments have locks with different
inserts than the control compartment door. The different lock inserts ensure that these
doors can only be opened by personnel authorized to do so.

For more information, see Section 11.6.2 De-energizing the drive locally.
3.6.1. Optional cabinets

If medium voltages are present in an optional cabinet during operation (eg, braking
chopper and output disconnector), the door is secured by an electro-mechanical lock as well
as a door monitoring switch. If the cabinet is UL certified, the door is further secured with
extra screws. The lock and the switch release the door after the DC link of the drive has
discharged and the drive has been grounded.

3.7. Arc resistant design (optional)

The optional “Arc Resistant Design” provides the drive with arc fault protection in
accordance with IEC 62477-2.
The ABB arc resistant classes in Table 3–4 indicate the type of arc proofing that a drive has.
Depending on the drive configuration, classes I, II and III are available for an ACS1000W.
For information on the arc resistant design class of your drive, see the project-specific
“Converter Data Sheet” (“Appendix B - Technical data” of the ACS1000W user manual).

4.2.1. Local control panel

The local control panel on the door of the control compartment serves as the basic user
interface for monitoring, control, operation of the drive, and setting of parameters.
For more information, see Chapter 9 Operation and Chapter 10 CDP control panel.

CONTROL SYSTEM
4.2.2. AMC circuit board

The AMC circuit board is the major component of the drive’s control system and performs
general drive control, motor control, and closed loop functions. The main internal control
devices and the peripheral input and output interfaces to the customer communicate with
the AMC circuit board via optical fibers.
The circuit board is fitted with a Motorola DSP processor and features two PPCS and eight
DDCS communication channels. These communication channels are used for high-speed
data transfer via the INT circuit board to the inverter.
Figure 4–4 AMC circuit board
1) AMC circuit board 2) Interface circuit board (INT)
4.2.2.1. Control tasks

The AMC circuit board has specific control and closed-loop tasks assigned to it. It
processes drive and status information, performs the speed and torque control tasks, and
monitors the operation of the drive.
All relevant drive variables (eg, speed, torque, current, voltage) are continuously monitored
by the control system. Pre-programmed protection functions ensure that these variables
remain within certain limits in order to maintain safe operation of the drive. These internal
functions are not programmable by the user.
Optionally, the AMC circuit board can monitor signals from external equipment. These can
be activated and adjusted with parameters.
Other general control, protection and monitoring tasks regarding the whole drive include
control and monitoring of:
– Main circuit breaker protection device → page 27

– Grounding switch → page 38
– Cooling systems → page 44

CONTROL SYSTEM
4.2.2.2. Parameters
The control system is configured, customized, and tuned with a set of application
parameters. The application parameters are organized in functional groups and have
factory-set default values. The default parameter values are adjusted during
commissioning to the specific application of the drive in order to activate the specific
control, monitoring and protection functions for the driven process, and to define the
signals and data transferred between drive and external equipment.
For more information on the parameters for signal allocation, signal type selection, signal
inversion, scaling, and filtering, see “Appendix G - Signal and parameter table”.
4.2.2.3. Main circuit breaker

The main circuit breaker (MCB) is an important switching and protection device of the drive
system. Therefore it must only be controlled and monitored by the drive.
For more information, see:
– “Input circuit breaker engineering guideline” (3BHS104785 E01)
– Main circuit breaker protection device → page 27
4.2.2.4. Direct torque control

The speed and torque of the motor is controlled by DTC (Direct Torque Control). DTC
provides accurate speed and torque control, and high dynamic speed response.

Switching of the semiconductors in the inverter is directly controlled in accordance with the
motor core variables flux and torque.

CONTROL SYSTEM
The measured motor currents and DC link voltages are inputs to an adaptive motor model.
The model produces exact values of torque and flux every 25 microseconds. Motor torque
and flux comparators compare the actual values to reference values which are produced by
the torque and flux reference controllers.
Depending on the outputs from the hysteresis controllers, the switching logic directly
determines the optimum switch positions every 50 microseconds and initiates switching
whenever required.
4.2.2.5. Peripheral I/O devices

The peripheral input and output devices connected to the AMC circuit board include:
– Local CDP control panel
– IOEC I/O modules for parallel signal transfer to external devices (see Section 4.3.1 IOEC
I/O modules)
– Serial communication interface (fieldbus) for serial data transfer to a higher-level

control system (see Section 4.3.2 Serial communication interface (fieldbus))
– Pulse encoder interface NTAC (option) (see Section 4.3.3 Pulse encoder interface NTAC
(option))
– PC-based service tools comprising:
• DriveWare® software tools, commissioning and maintenance tools, ie, DriveWindow

and DriveDebug, and DriveOPC for data transfer between ABB drives and Windows®-
based applications.
• NETA-21 for monitoring and diagnostics tool that allows access to the drive from any
location in the world via a secure Internet connection.
4.2.2.6. Control modes

The drive provides the following control modes:
– Speed control mode: Default control mode of the drive. The control mode can be used
for applications where constant speed is required, such as pumps, fans and conveyors.
– Torque control mode: used for processes that require torque control (eg, mixers and
slave drives). The torque reference comes from a process control system or a control
panel.
– PID control mode: controls the process variable (eg, pressure, level or flow) by
adjusting the speed of the motor accordingly.

CONTROL SYSTEM

2) Level transducer 4) Pump
Application examples:
– Booster pumps of municipal water supply systems

– Automatic level control of water reservoirs
– Booster pumps of district heating systems
– Speed control of different types of material handling systems where the material flow
has to be regulated.
– Sequential control mode: used in processes that require different constant speed
settings and/or different acceleration and/or deceleration settings in addition to an
adjustable speed reference value.
Up to seven constant speed settings and two acceleration and/or deceleration settings
are possible. The selection of the different settings can be automated by a process
control system or can be made manually by selector switches that are connected to the
corresponding digital inputs of the drive.
The preset values of a control mode can be left unchanged or they can be set individually by
the commissioning engineer as required for the application.
For more information on control mode settings, see “Appendix G - Signal and parameter
table”.

CONTROL SYSTEM
4.2.2.7. Operating modes

The drive provides the following operating modes:
– Master-follower operating mode: used for applications with several drives where the
motor shafts are coupled to each other (eg, gearing, chain, belt). Owing to the master-
follower operating mode the load can be evenly distributed between the drives or at
some adjustable other ratio which depends on the process.
– Hand-auto operating mode: suitable for applications where the speed has to be
controlled automatically by a process automation system and manually by an external
control panel. The active control station is selected via a digital input.
The operating mode is also recommended when two external control stations exist from
where the reference value can be set and the drive can be started and stopped. The
external control station is selected via a digital input.
4.3. I/O interfaces
4.3.1. IOEC I/O modules

Internal and external, analog and binary I/O signals are connected to the control system by
IOEC modules.
The standard I/O includes one external module (IOEC 2, IOEC 3) and one module that is
internal to the drive operation (IOEC 1). The standard I/O provides standard control and
supervision functionalities sufficient for most applications.
The drive can include an optional expansion I/O that includes an external module (IOEC 4).
These expansion modules provide extra inputs and outputs for control and supervision as
may be required by the drive or the customer to support various control options.

7.6.1.5. Minimum Creepage Distance

When using spacers for cable connection to a busbar, the minimum required creepage
distance must be observed. Depending on the comparative tracking index (CTI) of the
insulation material of the cable the following minimum creepage distances (MCD) apply:
Table 7–2 Creepage distance
MCD in mm CTI
63 600
71 400 to 600
80 175 to 400
If the CTI value of the insulation material is unknown, the values in row three of the table
apply. The spacers shown in are installed to guarantee for the minimum creeping distance.
Since cable sheaths are not normally rated for high voltage insulation, the minimum
distance must be guaranteed.
7.6.1.6. Splitting multi-core cables

This section applies to drives without an additional cabinet.
– Check the distance between point of cable entry and closest busbar.
– Check the cable diameter.
– If distance and cable diameter do not allow bending the cable inside the terminal
compartment, separate the conductors outside of the terminal compartment.

OPERATION
9. Operation
9.1. Safety
The drive must only be operated by qualified and authorized personnel, ie,
personnel who are familiar with the operation of the drive and the
hazards involved.
9.2. Overview
The chapter outlines the local operation of the drive.
Control of the drive via a PLC or higher-level control systems is not described in this
chapter. If the drive is controlled from remote, see the appropriate manuals for
information.
The panel messages and parameter settings used in this chapter are typical examples to
illustrate the related instructions and display functions and can therefore differ from the
actual messages and parameter settings in the drive.
9.3. Operating conditions

The operating conditions for the drive are according to IEC 60721-3-3.
– Conditions: 3K22 / 3B1 / 3S6 / 3M11
If the operating conditions are not within the specifications, contact ABB.
9.4. Sound pressure level

– Single fan: < 70 dB (A)
– Redundant fan: < 75 dB (A) for drives with IP42

OPERATION
9.5. Local operator panel

Under normal operating conditions, the local operator panel allows you to operate the drive
without restrictions. For example, you can use the panel to perform the following actions:
– Connect and disconnect the main power supply
– Set the reference value
– Start and stop the drive
– Display actual values, status messages, alarms and fault messages
– View and setting parameters
– Reset alarm and fault messages
– Activate the emergency off circuit
For more information, see Chapter 10 CDP control panel.

OPERATION
9.6. Status messages

This section lists the messages of the main operating states the drive passes through,
when it is put into operation, when it is stopped, or when a fault condition has occurred. The
messages are sent to the higher-level control system and are displayed on the CDP control
panel of the drive.
For information on other status messages, such as fault status messages in particular, see
the status words in the “Appendix G - Signal and parameter table” of the drive.
RdyForMCBOn
The status message signals that the drive is healthy and ready for the ON
command. The ON command initiates the closing of the MCB and then the
charging of the DC-link capacitors. Depending on the control place, the command
can either be sent from the higher-level control system to the drive or be initiated
by pressing the Main circuit online push button on the control
compartment door.
Charging
The status message Rd yFo rMCB On changes to C ha rg ing when the DC-link
capacitors of the drive are being charged.
Rdy to Strt
The status message Rdy to Strt tells the operator that the drive is energized and
ready for operation. As soon as the start command is initiated, the motor is
magnetized and the drive starts to modulate.
Magnetizing
The status message Rdy to Strt changes to Magnetizing when the firing pulses
of the inverter are released.
Running
When the drive is in Running state, it is running and operating according to the
set speed or torque reference value. When in remote control mode, the reference
value is set by the higher-level control system. When in local control mode, the
value is entered into the CDP control panel.
Stopping
Indicates that the drive has received a stop command and that a ramp or coast
stop has been initiated. The stopping mode depends on the parameter setting.
The status message changes to Rdy to Strt when the zero speed threshold
is reached.
When a start command is given while the drive is stopping, the drive resumes
operation and the status message changes to Ru nni ng again.
Discharging
The status message Rdy to Strt changes to Discharging when the MCB has
opened and the DC-link capacitors are discharging.
Tripped
The status message indicates that a fault condition has occurred that requires a
shutdown of the drive. The status message always alternates with the specific
fault message. The type of shutdown depends on the fault class the fault
condition is assigned to in the drive software.

10.2. CDP control panel functions

The CDP control panel serves as the basic user interface for operating and monitoring the
drive when the local operating mode has been selected.
The CDP control panel can be attached to or detached from the drive without having to
switch off the auxiliary power supply first.
You can perform the following tasks with the CDP control panel:
– Enter start-up data
– Control the drive with a reference value, and start, stop and direction commands
– Display actual values (three values can be read simultaneously)
– Display and adjust parameters
– Display information on the most recent forty fault events
– Upload and download complete parameter sets from one drive to another
10.3. CDP control panel modes

The CDP control panel provides the following modes:
– Identification mode → page 120
– Actual signals mode → page 121
– Parameters mode → page 128
– Functions mode → page 135
10.3.1. Identification mode

The identification mode informs the user about the CDP control panel version and the ID
number of the drive. The information appears on the display when the:
– Power supply is switched on
– CDP control panel is connected to the drive and the auxiliary voltage has already been
switched on.

PREVENTIVE AND CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE
11. Preventive and corrective maintenance
11.1. General information

During the warranty period of the drive, all maintenance must be performed exclusively by
ABB service personnel. After the warranty period, maintenance must only be performed by
certified personnel.
11.1.1. Required qualification

To maintain safe and reliable operation of the drive, ABB recommends taking out a service
contract with the ABB service organization.
11.1.2. Maintenance schedule

Perform all maintenance tasks according to the maintenance schedule and the applicable
service instructions, on time and at the intervals stated in the “ACS1000 preventive
maintenance schedule” (3BHS855276 E01).
11.1.3. Logbook
ABB recommends that you keep track of all troubleshooting and maintenance work in a
logbook including:
– Date and time
– Detailed description
11.1.4. Spare parts

To ensure safe and reliable operation, use only spare parts recommended and
approved by ABB.
For information on types and identification codes, see “Appendix E - Parts list”.

11.2. Identifying electrical equipment

This section describes how to identify electrical devices, cables, and wires.
11.2.1. Device identification

To facilitate the identification in wiring diagrams and parts lists, all devices are labeled in
accordance with IEC 81346-1.
Figure 11–1 Device identification
11.2.2. Cables and wires

Cables and wires in the drive are equipped with marker sleeves which carry the same
identification number as in the wiring diagrams.
11.2.3. Understanding wiring diagrams

For information on item designation and cross-reference conventions, see
“Appendix D - Wiring diagrams”.

11.3. Alarm / fault indications
11.3.1. Messages
When a failure occurs in the drive or in the equipment monitored by the drive (eg, main
circuit breaker, transformer, cooling system), the CDP control panel displays a
corresponding alarm or fault message.
1 L -> 600.0 rpm 0

ACS1000
*** FAULT ***
MCB CloseControl
The message can be saved and viewed in the fault history of the drive when a PC with the
DriveWindow or DriveDebug is connected to the drive. The fault logger can also be called up
on the CDP control panel.
11.3.2. Error message levels

Two error message levels are used in the drive:
– Alarm: Does not shut down the drive. If the condition causing the alarm is not corrected,
a persisting alarm can lead to a fault. An alarm cannot be reset manually. The alarm
message is deleted from the display as soon as the alarm condition has been corrected.
An exception is when an alarm of the cooling system (eg, FanDiffPres, AirFiltSupv) is not
reset automatically. To reset the alarm, set parameter 41.04 FanAlarmReset to RESET.
– Fault: A fault shuts down the drive. The type of shutdown depends on the origin of the
fault. Depending on the type of fault, the drive opens the main circuit breaker (MCB) or
keeps it closed. A fault condition must be corrected and the fault be manually reset
before the drive can be started again.
11.3.2.1. Alarm / fault messages

If an alarm or a fault occurs, a specific message is saved in the fault buffer of the drive.
Information on the 64 most recent fault and alarm events are saved.

11.3.3. Fault handling

The faults are entered into the fault logger as they occur and are numbered:
– The last fault entered always has number 1 assigned to it.
– The first fault always has the highest number in the fault buffer.
Date and time stamps facilitate fault tracing, especially when a fault leads to several
subsequent faults.
Example:
1) -Fault RESET FAULT 2011-04-26 14:57:56.5370
2) +Fault Undervoltage 2011-04-26 14:47:41.1110
3) +Warn Undervoltage 2011-04-26 14:47:41.1000
4) +Fault MCB Disturb 2011-04-26 14:47:38.0230
In the above example:
4) +Fault MCB Disturb is the reason for the failure of the drive, as it occurred first.
3) +Warn Undervoltage occurred approximately 3 seconds after the first fault.
2) +Fault Undervoltage immediately followed the warning.
1) -Fault RESET FAULT informs that the fault has been reset.
For more information on alarms and faults, see “Appendix G - Signal and parameter table”.

11.3.4. Standard troubleshooting procedure

If a fault shuts down the drive, proceed as follows:
1) DO NOT switch off the auxiliary supply voltage or try to reset a fault
message before all information at the time of the occurrence of the fault
condition has been saved.
2) Select the fault history display on the CDP control panel, but DO NOT clear
the buffer!
For more information, see Chapter 10 CDP control panel.
3) Identify the fault and make a logbook entry.
4) Save the content of the data logger when a PC is available that has the
DriveWindow or DriveDebug tool installed.
The data logger provides information (eg, waveforms of voltage, current,

torque) for efficient troubleshooting.
5) Contact ABB service if a fault cannot be rectified.
When calling ABB service, it is recommended to have the following data

available at the time when the fault occurred:
• Operating, ambient and load conditions
• Unusual events
6) After the fault has been rectified, start the drive as described in Chapter 11
Preventive and corrective maintenance.

11.4. Removing the CDP control panel

IMPORTANT! If the CDP control panel is removed during operation, the drive can only be
stopped by pressing the EMERGENCY OFF button.
1. If the panel is removed while the drive is in operation, check the setting of parameter

3) IOEC4 / -A5211 (option)

11.6.5. Checking the release conditions for the grounding switch
1) Check that the auxiliary voltage is switched on. 
2) Main power supply is disconnected from the drive.
– Check that the MCB is open. 
When the MCB is open, secure it against closing.
– Check that the feedback signal "MCB is open" arrives at the drive, ie, if the
following indicators are lit:
• LED of digital input DI08 of I/O module -A5201 (-A2) 
– (LED is not lit) Check the control-signal wiring between switchgear and 
drive as per applicable wiring diagram.
• MAIN SUPPLY ON push button -S5152 (-S2) 
When the LED and the push button are lit, the feedback signal “MCB is open”
has arrived at the drive.
– (Push button is not lit) Check if the 24 V blade-type fuse (X27_P2:14) is 

blown.
The fuse protects the control circuit of the pushbutton.
3) Discharge level of the DC link.
– Check if the value of parameter 2.06 DC VOLTAGE is below 50 V. 
When the value is below 50 V, the DC link is regarded as discharged. For

information on reading actual values on the CDP control panel, see Section 10.3.2
Actual signals mode.
4) GROUNDING SWITCH UNLOCKED lamp and the wiring of the lamp.
– Check if the CDP control panel displays a fault. 
A fault prevents the lamp GROUNDING SWITCH UNLOCKED from lighting.
• If a fault is present, follow the instructions in Section 11.3.4 Standard

troubleshooting procedure, before you reset a fault.
• If a fault cannot be rectified and reset, contact the ABB service organization.

– If the CDP control panel does not display a fault, check that digital output DO04 
of I/O module -A5191 (-A1) is energized.
• DO04 releases the grounding switch and lights the lamp GROUNDING SWITCH
UNLOCKED (–H5152).
• When the LED of DO04 is lit and the control voltage is present at terminals
X24:2 and X24:3 of DO04, DO04 is energized.
– If digital output DO04 of the I/O module is not energized, check the I/O module 
-A5191 (-A1).
To do this, check if the auxiliary voltage is present at the supply terminals of the I/
O module.
• X6:1.....24 V (DC)
• X6:2.....0 V
– Check that LED V726 and LED V740 of the I/O module -A5191 are lit. 
The LEDs monitor the control voltages of the I/O module (Fig. 11–3).
When the LEDs are lit, the I/O module functions properly.
• LED V726.....24 V (DC)
• LED V740.....5 V (DC)
– If digital output DO04 I/O module -A5191 is energized, check that the control 
voltage is present at the terminals of the lamp GROUNDING SWITCH UNLOCKED.
• If the control voltage is present but the lamp is not lit, the lamp is burnt out and
must be replaced.
• If the control voltage is not present, check the wiring of the lamp. Correct the
wiring if necessary.
5) Check that hazardous voltages from the motor cannot be fed into the drive. 
IMPORTANT! When the checklist is completed, carefully try to turn the grounding switch to
the grounded position. If you cannot turn the grounding switch but doors of medium
