Control Chassis Grounding<br />

It is important to understand and implement proper grounding<br />

of your motor control to ensure safety of personnel and<br />

protect your product investment.<br />

Chassis or circuit common (sometimes called ‘ground’) and<br />

earth ground are NOT synonymous.<br />

The motor control circuitry should remain isolated from<br />

earth ground at all times. Earth ground conductors should not<br />

terminate at any screw terminal unless specifically labeled<br />

GND, as in the 500 series. The 500 series is the only <strong>Dart</strong><br />

product line that provides a screw terminal connection for<br />

earth ground wiring.<br />

<strong>Dart</strong> motor controls are mounted to various types of metal<br />

chassis which act as heat-sinks for the motor current carrying<br />

components of the control circuitry. These chassis are electrically<br />

isolated from the circuitry and should be grounded. If<br />

present, the GND screw terminal will safely ground the chassis.<br />

If a GND screw terminal is not provided (the case for ALL <strong>Dart</strong><br />

products except the 500 Series), ground termination points may<br />

be provided in the form of a ground lug or spade. Consult the<br />

product Instruction manual to verify whether a screw terminal or<br />

spade pin is provided to accommodate earth ground wiring.<br />

If a termination point is not provided on the terminal strip<br />

or chassis directly, a ground conductor may be terminated<br />

under a mounting screw or bolt at one of the mounting slots<br />

of the chassis.<br />
