Hello Gents,
I am working with some Schneider VFDs and was reading the manual of one of them and read this:
In case of higher size of motor, possible up to 2 sizes (example is using a 4 kW (5.5 HP)
on a 2.2 kW (3 HP) drive) it is necessary to ensure motor current and actual motor power will not pass over nominal power of drive.
Does "not pass over nominal power of drive" mean "is not higher than nominal power of drive? Or do they mean something else?
The point I don't understand is that the paragraph seems contradictory, on one hand it states that it is possible to use a motor with higher rated power than that of the drive and then not.
Thanks
