Introduction
Prior to commissioning, the following work will have been performed by the
customer or the customer’s electrical contractor:
(2) Interconnection of power cables and low voltage control wiring bundles, between separately shipped cabinets, can be done by the
contractor or Rockwell Automation. The commissioning quote from Rockwell Automation reflects this and will contain two options:
a) the base quote, reflecting the power cable and control wiring interconnection work being done by the contractor
b) the optional quote adder, reflecting the additional time and cost for Rockwell Automation to perform the power cable and
control wiring interconnection work immediately prior to the commissioning process.
This work will be reviewed during the pre-commissioning customer meeting and
validated during the commissioning process; see Installaion Review on page 21 or
page 37.

Before commissioning the drive, ensure you have the following resources:
• Project-specific Electrical Drawings and Dimensional Drawings
• PowerFlex 6000 Medium Voltage Variable Frequency Drive Shipping,
Handling, and Installation Manual 6000-IN006_-EN-P): provides
procedural information for physically unloading, moving, and installing
equipment
• PowerFlex 6000 Medium Voltage Variable Frequency Drive
Commissioning Manual (6000-IN007_-EN-P): required procedures and
checklists for Rockwell Automation Field Service Engineers.
• PowerFlex 6000 Medium Voltage Variable Frequency Drive User Manual
(6000-UM002_-EN-P): instructions for daily recurring drive usage, HMI
interface, and maintenance tasks
• PLC Program: The PLC I/O processes control signals within the drive
and I/O signals to and from the customer’s control system and input
circuit breaker. The PLC program is standardized. However, it may be
customized to address specific customer requirements by Rockwell
Automation during the Application Engineering phase of order execution.
ATTENTION: Make sure the medium voltage input circuit breaker feeding the
drive is locked out and tagged out. Make sure the LV circuit breaker feeding
control power to the drive is locked out and tagged out. Make sure the drive is
de-energized before conducting the drive inspection process.
Once all documentation has been reviewed, an on-site inspection of the drive is
required. Identify the physical locations of the connections to the drive using Tag
Identification names or numbers from the one-line diagram and Rockwell
Automation Electrical Drawings.
All customer power and control wiring required for the drive line-up installation
has been identified on the Rockwell Automation Electrical Drawings by a dashed
line.
Installation of all external power cabling and control wiring interfacing with the
drive is completed by the customer or their electrical contractor. Verify that this
wiring is installed correctly and meets electrical voltage and current capacity
requirements. Trace the power cables point-to-point from the input circuit
breaker to the drive, and from the drive to the motor using the Electrical
Drawings as a reference for proper drive power cable termination locations. Any
discrepancy between the physical installation and the Electrical Drawings of the
following items should be reviewed prior to commissioning the drive:
• Medium voltage power cabling in from the input circuit breaker to drive
• Medium voltage power cabling out from drive to motor
• Low Voltage control power cables from LV MCC or circuit breaker to
drive
• Ground connection from system ground to drive
• Control signal wires and communication cables from remote DCS/PLC
or other remote device to drive
• Electrical safety interlock/control wiring from the drive to the input
circuit breaker
Electrical Equipment
• High voltage gloves – 17 kV insulation rating (minimum)
• Anti-static strap
• Live-line tool (Hot stick)
• 5 kV Insulation Tester
Test Equipment
• 600V (1000V rating) digital multimeter with assorted clip leads
Lockout and Tagout SHOCK HAZARD: Servicing energized industrial control equipment can be
dangerous. Severe injury or death can result from electrical shock, burn, or
unintended actuation of control equipment. Hazardous voltages may exist in
the cabinet even with the input circuit breaker in the off position. Required
practice is to disconnect and lock out control equipment from power sources,
and confirm discharge of stored energy in capacitors. If it is necessary to work in
the vicinity of energized equipment, the safety related work practices outlined
in Electrical Safety requirements for Employee Work places must be followed.
Before attempting any work, verify the system has been locked out and tested
to have no potential.
Lockout and tagout the input circuit breaker before opening the doors to the
drive system cabinets. After the cabinet doors are opened, immediately test the
incoming and outgoing power cables and any components connected to medium
voltage with a live-line tool (hot stick) while wearing high voltage gloves. Pay
special attention to any capacitors connected to medium voltage that can retain a
charge for a period of time. Only after the equipment has been verified as isolated
and de-energized can subsequent work be performed. Even though the input to
the drive may be open, it is still possible for hazardous voltage to be present.
Refer to local safety guidelines for detailed procedures on how to safely isolate
the equipment from hazards.
Safety Test
Complete every point included in this section prior to continuing with the drive
commissioning, to ensure that the commissioning continues in an environment
safe to all those involved in servicing the drive. Ensure that commissioning of this
drive is performed in accordance with local safety standards.
Inspect Drive Components After performing the lockout and tagout procedure (see page 15), open all of the
cabinet doors. Inspect each component for signs of shipping damage (see Table 3
on page 18). An initial inspection would have been done by the customer when
the equipment was received. However, this would have been done from the front
only and was just looking for obvious signs of damage (see publication 6000-
IN006_-EN-P). Record the part number and description of any damaged
components and immediately contact the Start-up Project Manager to order
replacement components, if required.
Most components will be easily visible on the doors or from the front of the
cabinets after the doors are opened. Some components are best viewed from the
rear of the cabinet.
For rear inspection, remove top and bottom rear access plates from the drive and
bypass cabinet (if supplied). See publication 6000-IN006_-EN-P.
IMPORTANT The Inspect Drive Components Checklist (see page 18) mentions the principal
base components supplied in the drive and bypass units. It is not
comprehensive, as customer-required options may be supplied and three
different bypass configurations are available.
Perform the shipping damage inspection for all components mounted in the
drive cabinets and specific bypass unit cabinet (if supplied).
Functional Assessment After the components are visually inspected to identify any shipping damage, a
thorough functional assessment should be performed (see Table 4 on page 19).
The main purpose of this assessment is to ensure that all movable parts and
assemblies operate properly, connect properly, and components are wired
properly and securely.
The Functional Assessment procedure can be combined with the “Inspect Drive
Components” checklist on page 18.

Interconnection Review The interconnection checklist summarizes the required items to review to
validate the reconnection of power, ground, and control cables between cabinets
within the drive system, that were disconnected for shipment. Power and control
cables that pass from one cabinet to another are bundled in the appropriate
cabinet. These cables are connected for system test at the factory but
disconnected and coiled up for shipment. If this interconnection work was done
by the contractor, use this checklist to review and ensure the work was done
correctly. If the interconnection work was not done by the contractor, the scope
of work required to be performed is described in 6000-IN006_-EN-P.
.
IMPORTANT Check torque on all power and ground cable connections per specifications
listed in Torque Requirements on page 109.
Installation Review Prior to commencing the commissioning of the drive, verify the equipment was
properly installed. Identifying errors in the drive installation prior to
commencing the commissioning as opposed to mid-way through the
commissioning process will greatly reduce the amount of time required to
commission the drive. Verify the drive and all associated equipment have the
system power grounding cable installed. Refer to 6000-IN006_-EN-P to review
the contractor’s drive installation responsibilities and understand the scope of the
work you will be reviewing.
Power Cabling
Trace the power cabling from termination point to termination point while
examining the cable and its routing for mechanical damage, sharp bend radiuses
and sources of induced noise and heat. The power cabling must be is sufficiently
braced to contain the cabling in the event of a ground fault. Color coding is used
to indicate the phase orientation of the drive.

Incoming Line and Outgoing Motor cables must be routed separately to prevent
cable insulation damage.
All customer power cables must be Hi-Potted or Meggered and read a sufficient
insulation value. Review Hi-Pot or megger test report from the customer.
Control Wiring
Identify all customer-required control wiring detailed on the Electrical Drawings
and locate it within the terminal blocks. Verify the cable insulation is not
tightened in a terminal connection. All connections must have proper continuity.
Inspect the control cable routing to ensure that DC control wiring and AC
control wiring are separated from each other. Routing them together in the same
bundle or cabling product may result in unwanted noise being induced in the
drive control. In the overhead cable tray provided at the front of the drive, the AC
control, DC control and fiber optic cables must be separate. These cables may
also be from the bottom.
Perform a tug test on all control cables to ensure that they are securely fastened,
and check each plug and connector to ensure it is properly seated in its socket.
1. Isolate and lock out the drive system from any high voltage source.
Disconnect any incoming power sources, medium voltage sources should
be isolated and locked out and all control power sources should be turned
off at their respective circuit breaker(s).

Lockout and Tagout SHOCK HAZARD: Servicing energized industrial control equipment can be
dangerous. Severe injury or death can result from electrical shock, burn, or
unintended actuation of control equipment. Hazardous voltages may exist in
the cabinet even with the input circuit breaker in the off position. Required
practice is to disconnect and lock out control equipment from power sources,
and confirm discharge of stored energy in capacitors. If it is necessary to work in
the vicinity of energized equipment, the safety related work practices outlined
in Electrical Safety requirements for Employee Work places must be followed.
Before attempting any work, verify the system has been locked out and tested
to have no potential.
Lockout and tagout the input circuit breaker before opening the doors to the
drive system cabinets. After the cabinet doors are opened, immediately test the
incoming and outgoing power cables and any components connected to medium
voltage with a live-line tool (hot stick) while wearing high voltage gloves. Pay
special attention to any capacitors connected to medium voltage that can retain a
charge for a period of time. Only after the equipment has been verified as isolated
and de-energized can subsequent work be performed. Even though the input to
the drive may be open, it is still possible for hazardous voltage to be present.
Refer to local safety guidelines for detailed procedures on how to safely isolate
the equipment from hazards.
Safety Test
Complete every point included in this section prior to continuing with the drive
commissioning, to ensure that the commissioning continues in an environment
safe to all those involved in servicing the drive. Ensure that commissioning of this
drive is performed in accordance with local safety standards.
Inspect Drive Components After performing the lockout and tagout procedure (see page 31), open all of the
cabinet doors. Inspect each component for signs of shipping damage (see Table 8
on page 34). An initial inspection would have been done by the customer when
the equipment was received. However, this would have been done from the front
only and was just looking for obvious signs of damage (see publication 6000-
IN006_-EN-P). Record the part number and description of any damaged
components and immediately contact the Start-up Project Manager to order
replacement components, if required.
Most components will be easily visible on the doors or from the front of the
cabinets after the doors are opened. Some components are best viewed from the
rear of the cabinet.
For rear inspection, remove top and bottom rear access plates from the drive and
bypass cabinet (if supplied). See publication 6000-IN006_-EN-P.
IMPORTANT The Inspect Drive Components Checklist (see page 34) mentions the principal
base components supplied in the drive and bypass units. It is not
comprehensive, as customer-required options may be supplied and three
different bypass configurations are available.
Perform the shipping damage inspection for all components mounted in the
drive cabinets and specific bypass unit cabinet (if supplied).
Functional Assessment After the components are visually inspected to identify any shipping damage, a
thorough functional assessment should be performed (see Table 9 on page 35).
The main purpose of this assessment is to ensure that all movable parts and
assemblies operate properly, connect properly, and components are wired
properly and securely.
The Functional Assessment procedure can be combined with the “Inspect Drive
Components” checklist on page 34.

Interconnection Review The interconnection checklist summarizes the required items to review to
validate the reconnection of power, ground, and control cables between cabinets
within the drive system, that were disconnected for shipment. Power and control
cables that pass from one cabinet to another are bundled in the appropriate
cabinet. These cables are connected for system test at the factory but
disconnected and coiled up for shipment. If this interconnection work was done
by the contractor, use this checklist to review and ensure the work was done
correctly. If the interconnection work was not done by the contractor, the scope
of work required to be performed is described in 6000-IN006_-EN-P.
.
IMPORTANT Check torque on all power and ground cable connections per specifications
listed in Torque Requirements on page 109.
Installation Review Prior to commencing the commissioning of the drive, verify the equipment was
properly installed. Identifying errors in the drive installation prior to
commencing the commissioning as opposed to mid-way through the
commissioning process will greatly reduce the amount of time required to
commission the drive. Verify the drive and all associated equipment have the
system power grounding cable installed. Refer to 6000-IN006_-EN-P to review
the contractor’s drive installation responsibilities and understand the scope of the
work you will be reviewing.
Power Cabling
Trace the power cabling from termination point to termination point while
examining the cable and its routing for mechanical damage, sharp bend radiuses
and sources of induced noise and heat. The power cabling must be is sufficiently
braced to contain the cabling in the event of a ground fault. Color coding is used
to indicate the phase orientation of the drive.
Table 11 - Color Coding (UL)
Color Incoming Line Side Outgoing Motor Side
Black L1 (A Phase) Line Cable Terminal U Phase:
• Power Module Bus

Incoming Line and Outgoing Motor cables must be routed separately to prevent
cable insulation damage.
All customer power cables must be Hi-Potted or Meggered and read a sufficient
insulation value. Review Hi-Pot or megger test report from the customer.
Control Wiring
Identify all customer-required control wiring detailed on the Electrical Drawings
and locate it within the terminal blocks. Verify the cable insulation is not
tightened in a terminal connection. All connections must have proper continuity.
Inspect the control cable routing to ensure that DC control wiring and AC
control wiring are separated from each other. Routing them together in the same
bundle or cabling product may result in unwanted noise being induced in the
drive control. In the overhead cable tray provided at the front of the drive, the AC
control, DC control and fiber optic cables must be separate. These cables may
also be from the bottom.
Perform a tug test on all control cables to ensure that they are securely fastened,
and check each plug and connector to ensure it is properly seated in its socket.
1. Isolate and lock out the drive system from any high voltage source.
Disconnect any incoming power sources, medium voltage sources should
be isolated and locked out and all control power sources should be turned
off at their respective circuit breaker(s).
Verify with a potential indicator that power sources have been
disconnected, and that the control power in the drive is de-energized.
2. Disconnect four 380V AC cables (a, b, c, and o cables) from the bottom of
the Isolation Transformer.
3. Disconnect the Voltage Sensing Board Output Cable. Keep the plug at
least 100 mm away from the Voltage Sensing Board.
7. Remove two star connection cables (the cabling that goes through the
HECS) and connect them to the output connections of any two power
modules within a phase.

Notes:
Overview Table 18 on page 90 and Table 19 on page 98 outlines specific parameters that
must be checked and/or modified when commissioning a drive. Listed below are
specific parameters, a brief description and their function to execute optional
special functions which, while not essential to commissioning a drive and will not
be done every time, are frequently performed.
System Setting Functions The system setting includes the amount of power modules in one phase, the
command source, the drive rated parameter setting, the motor parameter setting,
the sensor parameter setting, the restoring of factory default parameter setting,
analog output parameter setting.
IMPORTANT This number MUST match the actual amount of power cells in one phase.
P7 is equal to the amount of power modules in one phase; for example, if the
amount of power cells in one phase is 6, P007=6. Power Module fault and
warning information is based on P007. If P007=0, this is ignored and the user
can run the drive using low voltage.
Use this parameter to check low voltage components and the control box.
Description: P004 selects the control source to start, stop, or reset the drive.
There are two Control Sources, the HMI and the hard-wired I/O interface
(DCS). They cannot be enabled at the same time.
Instruction: P460 is drive’s rated output frequency, which should be the same as
the motor’s rated frequency (0…75 Hz). P466 is the drive’s Maximum Output
Frequency; P460 cannot exceed P466.
Description: set basic motor parameters, such as rated current and the number of
pole pairs.
Instruction: P199 is motor rated current, which is used to determine faults. P017
sets the number of motor pole pairs.
Instruction: Set the HECS rated current (A) used for the drive current sampling.
Relevant parameters:
Description: sets the display parameters for the following analog output signals:
Set Frequency, Actual Frequency, Motor Voltage and Motor Current.
Instruction: each signal has four display parameters: memory address, filter
parameter, HMI display integer part and HMI display decimal part.
EXAMPLE To output the “given frequency” when the memory address is 221, the filter
time is 100 ms, the maximum integer part is 60, the maximum decimal part is
0, set P351=100, P352=60, P353=0, P371=221.
The value of P371, P372, P373, P374 are default values and do not generally
need to be changed. Field Support Engineers can change them according to the
specific configuration.
Instruction: this function includes the three different access levels: User Level,
Setup Level, and R&D Level. The amount of parameters restored is dependent
on the access level. Press Reset to restore parameters.
The following table shows the parameters which can be restored in the different
access levels.

P092, P093, P113, P114, P115, P198, P199, P205, P206, P210, P212, P213, P215, P216, P222,
P223, P224, P238, P252, P253, P259, P260, P262, P263, P264, P278, P281, P282, P283, P285,
P335, P339, P352, P355, P358, P361, P385, P386, P387, P388, P389, P390, P391, P392, P399,
P401, P416, P417, P438, P441, P442, P451, P452, P453, P455, P456, P457, P459, P460, P463,

R&D (P005 = 50) All P parameters
IMPORTANT It can only be enabled when the setting frequency source is set to analog.
Description: this function limits the low frequency starting range, reduce the low
frequency output error for analog input mode. This parameter avoids the drive’s
output fluctuation when the frequency is around 0 Hz.
Instruction: if the original set frequency is lower than P414, the set frequency will
be changed to P414.
Description: this function limits the amplitude of the Set Frequency. The Set
Frequency must not exceed the maximum output frequency of the drive.
Instruction: this function can limit the Set Frequency between P413 and P415,
P415>P413>0.
Frequency Skip
Relevant parameter: P089, P090, P091, P092, P093
Instruction: this function is enabled by P089. There are two bands, one is
between P090 and P091, the other is between P092 and P093. The Set
Frequency can skip out from these two bands if it is within them. The Set
Frequency will be changed automatically into the upper limit of the bands while
the speed increases, or changed into the lower limit of the band while the speed
decreases (Figure 35). The recommended width of these intervals is 1 Hz.
fB2
Drive Recognize Frequency
fB1
fA2
fA1
Instruction: P451 is low speed voltage compensation (%), P452 is low speed
voltage compensation frequency threshold. If the output frequency is lower than
P452, the output voltage will be improved per P451 (Low Speed Voltage
Compensation).
Description: this function sets the maximum modulation index and limit the
output voltage amplitude, so the drive can run above rated frequency.
Instruction: change the output voltage without changing the output frequency by
adjusting P455. Adjust this value according to the field conditions to ensure the
output voltage/frequency is consistent with standard V/F curve.
P456 is the output voltage amplitude limit; the amplitude of output voltage
cannot exceed this value.
Instruction: P454 is the time to build the rotating magnetic field. This value will
not generally be changed.
Voltage Level (kV) VSB Output Line-to-Line Voltage (RMS V) P205, P206
3 3.62 195.20
3.3 3.98 177.46
4.16 3.77 187.64
6 3.63 195.09
6.6 3.98 177.35
10 (Not applicable for UL) 4.02 175.54
Description: the drive has two ways to stop the drive, ramp down or coast stop.
If P024=1, the output will stop immediately, so the motor will stop by inertance.
If P024=0, the output will stop the from the set frequency to 0 Hz. When the
frequency=P252*rated frequency (P252 is a percentage value), the system will be
locked.
To restart the drive if coast stop was selected, wait until it stops before restarting.
The time needed is:

Flying Start Function Relevant parameter: P113, P114, P115, P416, P417, P438, P457, P459,
P463, K5
Instruction: the flying start feature identifies the motor speed based on the
output current.
IMPORTANT P416 enables Flying Start Selection. If the Flying Start is not successful, change
the other parameters listed accordingly. Otherwise, these parameters do not
normally need to be changed.
If the drive cannot search the speed in the field, increase P417 to decrease the
search step and improve the accuracy; or increase P113 and decrease P115 to
improve the accuracy. If there was any noise during the restore stage, increase
P457 or P459. P463 does not need to be changed.
Description: these parameters use the auto-restart feature after a system fault.
Instruction: if P461 is enabled (P461=1), the drive will restart at once when
system fault occurs.
If there is something wrong with a Power Module, it will wait for P465 before
restarting. If a fault happens twice during the Fault Reset Timeout (P462), the
drive will trip.
IMPORTANT If restart feature was enabled, the second mode of flying start feature must be
enabled.
