Basic System Description

A motor control system will obviously include a motor and inverter, as well as a circuit
breaker or fuses for safety. If you are connecting a motor to the inverter on a test bench
just to get started, that's all you may need for now. But a system can also have a variety of
additional components. Some can be for noise suppression, while others may enhance the
inverter's braking performance. The figure and table below show a system with all the
optional components you might need in your finished application.

Input-side
This is useful in suppressing harmonics induced on the

power supply lines and for improving the power factor.
WARNING: Some applications must use an input-side AC
Reactor to prevent inverter damage. See Warning on next
page.
Radio noise filter
Electrical noise interference may occur on nearby
equipment such as a radio receiver. This magnetic choke
filter helps reduce radiated noise (can also be used on
output).

waveform to approximate commercial power quality. It is
also useful to reduce harmonics when wiring from the
