T911_O: Inverter Fault - Current Imbalance


Description

Current differential between phases of the compressor is greater than the threshold allows.

Expected Operation

Unit will shut down and attempt to restart. If this occurs 3 times in a call, unit will go into Lockout.

Cause

1.Wiring to compressor from drive or contactor is damaged or incorrect.

2.Compressor Windings may have high resistance to ground.

3. Capacitor on mid-tier inverter defective

4. Drive Defective

Solution

1. Correct Wiring to compressor,

2. If compressor has high resistance to ground (not a direct short), replace compressor

3. If Capacitor measured microfarad value is not within 10% or rated value, replace capacitor.

4. Replace the Drive
