I have a few questions on wiring 800 hop ac drives
1.0 Should the cables be vfd cable or will standard 500 mcm wire be fine? Why not?
2.0 Should each phase go to the motor in it's own conduit or all in one? Why?
3.0 Would there be a problem runing 2 phases in one conduit and the third phase in another? Why?
4.0 if one 2 phases are done in 500 mcm wire and the third in 2 250 mcm wire ( which makes a 500) be a problem
This drive will be running at 90 hz base.
I think there are problems with this installation but i don't know the answers to these questions to argue the fact.
