Motor Phase V to Ground Fault
Allen-Bradley · PowerFlex 40 Adjustable Frequency
¿Qué significa F39 ?
This fault indicates a grounded condition on motor phase V (output terminal V) between the drive and the motor. This usually points to insulation breakdown in the motor winding or the connecting cable.
Causas comunes
- Insulation breakdown of motor winding for phase V to the motor frame due to aging, overheating, or moisture.
- Damage to the motor cable insulation for phase V conductor, creating a short to ground (e.g., pinch point, abrasion).
- Moisture or conductive debris accumulation within the motor terminal box specifically affecting phase V connection.
- Loose or improperly terminated wiring for phase V at the motor or drive terminal, contacting the grounded enclosure.
- Internal drive output stage component failure (e.g., IGBT) specifically related to the V phase output.
Pasos de reparación & Lista de verificación

- 1
Disconnect motor cables (U, V, W) from drive output terminals. Perform an insulation resistance test (megger) from motor cable phase V conductor to ground.
- 2
Perform an insulation resistance test (megger) from the motor winding phase V terminal to the motor frame (ground) with other phases isolated.
- 3
Visually inspect the motor cable for phase V for any signs of physical damage, cuts, or abrasion along its entire length.
- 4
Inspect the motor terminal box and the drive output terminal for phase V for loose strands, moisture, or conductive material causing a short to ground.
- 5
Check the resistance between the motor terminals U, V, W with a multimeter; a significant imbalance or near-short on phase V might indicate a winding fault.
