NOTE
** Where varistors other than those listed in Table 3-18 are fitted branch circuit protection may be required, where this is the case, follow the
manufacturers recommendations.

NOTE
VDR1, VDR2 and VDR3 when operating with a 690 Vac supply should consist of two varistors each in series as detailed in Table 3-18 on page 35.

NOTE
To prevent inductive voltage spikes surge suppressors should be fitted to the contactor coils.

NOTE
The Regen inductor core losses are directly dependant on the switching frequency and specific core material and therefore selection is critical. As a
result only Regen inductors specified in this guide should be used.
