The wiring diagram for the VFD-EL model 007EL43A is not fully provided in the context. However, based on the information:
- Input terminals: R/L1, S/L2, T/L3 - Output terminals: U/T1, V/T2, W/T3 - Control terminals are behind the front cover. - The model uses Frame A or B depending on the submodel: - If VFD007EL21A/23A/43A → Frame A - If VFD007EL11A → Frame B
Ensure power and control terminals are clear after removing the front cover, follow NEC/CEC and UL/cUL standards, and refer to the technical data label for specific electrical data. The RFI jumper is located near the input terminals.
For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the full manual.

The AC motor drive may be destroyed beyond repair if incorrect cables are connected to the input/output terminals. Never connect the AC motor drive output terminals U/T1, V/T2, and W/T3 directly to the AC mains circuit power supply. Ground the VFD-EL using the ground terminal. The grounding method must comply with the laws of the country where the AC motor drive is to be installed.

WARNING! DO NOT use Hi-pot test for internal components. The semi-conductor used in AC motor drive easily damage by high-voltage. There are highly sensitive MOS components on the printed circuit boards. These components are especially sensitive to static electricity. To prevent damage to these components, do not touch these components or the circuit boards with metal objects or your bare hands.

The AC motor drive should be kept in the shipping carton or crate before installation. In order to retain the warranty coverage, the AC motor drive should be stored properly when it is not to be used for an extended period of time. Storage conditions are: CAUTION! Store in a clean and dry location free from direct sunlight or corrosive fumes.
Chapter 1 Introduction| 1.1 Receiving and Inspection This VFD-EL AC motor drive has gone through rigorous quality control tests at the factory before shipment.

RFI Jumper RFI Jumper: The AC motor drive may emit the electrical noise. The RFI jumper is used to suppress the interference (Radio Frequency Interference) on the power line. Main power isolated from earth: If the AC motor drive is supplied from an isolated power (IT power), the RFI jumper must be cut off. Then the RFI capacities (filter capacitors) will be disconnected from ground to prevent circuit damage (according to IEC 61800-3) and reduce earth leakage current.

After removing the front cover, check if the power and control terminals are clear. Be sure to observe the following precautions when wiring. General Wiring Information Applicable Codes All VFD-EL series are Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (UL) and Canadian Underwriters Laboratories (cUL) listed, and therefore comply with the requirements of the National Electrical Code (NEC) and the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC).
Users must connect wires according to the circuit diagrams on the following pages. Do not plug a modem or telephone line to the RS-485 communication port or permanent damage may result. The pins 1 & 2 are the power supply for the optional copy keypad only and should not be used for RS-485 communication.

Page 75
Chapter 4 Parameters| This parameter sets the Mid-Point Voltage of any V/f curve. With this setting, the V/f ratio between Minimum Frequency and Mid-Point Frequency can be determined. This parameter must be equal to or greater than Minimum Output Voltage (Pr.01.06) and equal to or less than Maximum Output Voltage (Pr.01.02).

01.08 Output Frequency Lower Limit Settings 0.0 to 100.0% The Upper/Lower Limits are to prevent operation errors and machine damage. If the Output Frequency Upper Limit is 50Hz and the Maximum Output Frequency is 60Hz, the Output Frequency will be limited to 50Hz. If the Output Frequency Lower Limit is 10Hz, and the Minimum Output Frequency (Pr.01.05) is set to 1.0Hz, then any Command Frequency between 1.0-10Hz will generate a 10Hz output from the drive.

Chapter 4 Parameters| In the diagram shown below, the Acceleration/Deceleration Time of the AC motor drive is the time between 0 Hz to Maximum Output Frequency (Pr.01.00). Suppose the Maximum Output Frequency is 60 Hz, Minimum Output Frequency (Pr.01.05) is 1.0 Hz, and Acceleration/Deceleration Time is 10 seconds.

Chapter 4 Parameters| These parameters determine the increase/decrease of the master frequency when operated via the Multi-function Inputs when Pr.04.05~Pr.04.08 are set to 10 (Up command) or 11 (Down command). When Pr.02.07 is set to 0: increase/decrease the frequency by using UP/DOWN key. It is valid only when the AC motor drive is running.

100% For safety reasons, install a thermal overload relay between brake unit and brake resistor. Together with the magnetic contactor (MC) in the mains supply circuit to the drive it offers protection in case of any malfunctioning. The purpose of installing the thermal overload relay is to protect the brake resistor against damage due to frequent brake or in case the brake unit is continuously on due to unusual high input voltage.

Page 207
Appendix C How to Select the Right AC Motor Drive| Motor torque characteristics vary when an AC Motor Drive instead of commercial power supply drives the motor. Check the load torque characteristics of the machine to be connected. Because of the high carrier frequency PWM control of the VFD series, pay attention to the following motor vibration problems: Resonant mechanical vibration: anti-vibration (damping) rubbers should be used to mount equipment that runs at varying speed.
Page 208
motor drive operates more than one motor, please pay attention to starting and changing the motor. Power Transmission Mechanism Pay attention to reduced lubrication when operating gear reduction motors, gearboxes, belts and chains, etc. over longer periods at low speeds. At high speeds of 50/60Hz and above, lifetime reducing noises and vibrations may occur.

Questions and answers
is there a minimum ampere for the model VFD4ELA i have a motor 3phase 400volt star connected, running amp is 0.4A
wiring diagram for the VFD 007EL43 A
The wiring diagram for the VFD-EL model 007EL43A is not fully provided in the context. However, based on the information:
- Input terminals: R/L1, S/L2, T/L3
- Output terminals: U/T1, V/T2, W/T3
- Control terminals are behind the front cover.
- The model uses Frame A or B depending on the submodel:
- If VFD007EL21A/23A/43A → Frame A
- If VFD007EL11A → Frame B
Ensure power and control terminals are clear after removing the front cover, follow NEC/CEC and UL/cUL standards, and refer to the technical data label for specific electrical data. The RFI jumper is located near the input terminals.
For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the full manual.
