How to solve the GFF error in delta Vfd-g

A GFF error on most Vfd's refer to a in-proper ground, no ground detected , or a possible ground loop. Ground loops are a common mistake, where in the attempt the user grounds two or more devices or the load to the vfd as well as the mains ground.

the model your using is a three phase input, it can handle delta or wye, style of wiring, but all require a good ground source. If anything, just run a dedicated ground to each device and don't run ground wires to each other. It's only used for voltage reference between the phases. Without it, the vfd cannot work properly and will error.

3phase to 1phase transformer

when your dealing with a high leg as long as your using two phase wires it is balanced. any two legs will give you 240 volts a.c.

I purchased a generac 22 kw 3 phase 120/240 volt generator. I was surprised to find that it had a wild leg. Can i change the leads on the stator output to eliminate the high leg and get straight 120/208...

This unit is wired 120-240V 3 phase Delta. if you are using on it 120/208V 3 phase application it will need to be re-tapped. If you are using it in a home 120-240V single phase it will need re-tapping, Do NOT just use 2 legs, as this will cause rotor imbalance and wear out the rotor bearings, and odd ball currents to flow. If there are 12 leads coming off the stator it can be reconnected. If not you are stuck with it, except by using a transformer

Wiring a dimmer switch with 208vac, single pole

208 Volt 2-wire is generally achieved by pulling two hot wires off 3-phase 120/208 Wye or 208 Delta, or Highleg to center tap off high leg delta.

http://waterheatertimer.org/images/3-phase-timer-diagram3-T104-208-240.jpg

Since each of these three phase systems also offers 120volt for lights, and a dimmer can be used for lights, then I wonder what you are using dimmer for?

208 volts.can be controlled by turning off one hot of the two hot wires.
Install dimmer on one of the hot wires, and see what happens.
Is the dimmer rated for 208 volts?

What is the use of wye delta?

I don't know why your question is bound to this special breaker.

If your question is common, the wye/delta is a way to reduce the starting current of a large three phase asinchronous motor.
When a three phase motor is first connected in wye (star), the starting (peak) current is about 3 times less than this in delta. When already in motion the electromotive force will make the peak current when turned in delta much less, than that with a stopped motor.

Need step by step instruction. i have wired many 110, never 220. I knoww its two 110

If you have wired many 110, then you will have no problem. The only difference is that both legs carry power. You will still connect one side to L1 (or Line) and the other side to, what we will now refer to as L2 (or if this was 110 we'd say neutral). Sometimes there is a third wire, this is the ground wire, which goes back to ground at the box. Hope this helps.

Unit comes on and runs for 5 minutes, the circuit trips off

30 is the correct size breaker for this unit. It sounds like there is a grounding issue going on in the system. Or off of the Thermostat. Something is grounding out causing the switch to trip. Are you running #10 wire to breaker and the unit? If not you will need to increase your wire size

Make a connection of a 6-leads, 3-phase motor in delta and wye connection

connection would be easier in the wye. single phase current is easier to pull of of one leg in the wye to get your common that you would not have in a delta connection. three phase doesnt require a nuetral. just 3 phase 120degrees out of phase from each other

Equipment Available is 220v 50 hz 1ph. Supply 240v 60 hz 1ph

yes you can, just add a breaker to your box. the black wire goes to breaker and the white wire to ground. then you will have a 220v

Compatability with US 240v 60HZ 1phase wiring?

It should work OK The US system is 240V single phase (split) into two 120v branches. Aussi system is hot on both sides, with a center ground (a virtual ground system) Connect the 2 main wires (usually brown and blue) to the 240 (black and red), and connect the grounds (Green/yellow to green), and leave the neutral wire off.
