If the relay on a Delta VFD-EL-W Series is not energized, check the following:

1. Parameter Settings: Ensure that the multi-function output relay (RA1, RB1, RC1) is correctly configured in parameter 03.00. Verify that the function assigned matches the intended operation.

2. RUN Command: Confirm that the drive is in the correct operational state. Some relay functions only activate when the drive is running or specific conditions are met.

3. Voltage and Connections: Use a multimeter to measure the voltage at the relay terminals and check for proper wiring connections.

4. Fault Conditions: Inspect for any active faults or alarms that might prevent the relay from energizing.

5. Environmental Factors: Ensure that temperature, humidity, and other environmental conditions are within the specified limits.

6. Inspection and Maintenance: If necessary, turn off the AC input power, wait at least five minutes, and check for any physical damage or contamination affecting relay operation.

If the issue persists, further diagnostic testing may be required.
