Undervoltage
Schneider Electric · ALTIVAR 28 Variable Speed Drive
Hva betyr USF ?
This fault indicates that the input voltage supplied to the drive controller is too low, possibly due to a transient voltage dip, a persistent low line voltage, or a damaged internal component like a load resistor. Undervoltage can cause erratic drive behavior, loss of motor control, and potential component stress.
Vanlige årsaker
- Incoming AC line voltage consistently below the drive's minimum rated input voltage (e.g., below 340V for a 400V drive).
- Transient voltage sag or brownout on the incoming AC power supply.
- Loose or corroded connections at the drive's input terminals (L1, L2, L3) or upstream power distribution.
- Blown input fuse on one or more phases leading to phase imbalance and low DC bus.
- Damage to the drive's internal rectifier bridge causing insufficient DC bus charging.
Reparasjonssteg & Sjekkliste

- 1
1. Measure incoming AC line voltage (L1-L2, L2-L3, L3-L1 terminals) with a true RMS multimeter and compare to drive's minimum rated input voltage.
- 2
2. Inspect all input power connections (L1, L2, L3) for tightness and signs of corrosion.
- 3
3. Check continuity of all incoming line fuses (if present) and replace any blown fuses.
- 4
4. Monitor DC bus voltage (drive display parameter P0-08 or similar) during operation to observe voltage dips.
- 5
5. Confirm the mains transformer (if used) is correctly sized for the load and has adequate voltage regulation.
