Hello, everyone!
I have recently purchased a Variable frequency drive, and I am having installation problems. The SKU is GK3000-SP1S1-1d5, and it is a 120V single phase to 1/3 phase 220V 2hp unit. I have it wired to an emergency switch and then a 20A plug, which I use for power. The unit has a green N and red L wire that I assumed was for line and neutral. The N wire goes into the unit while the L cable is spliced between 3 power input terminals. When I connect the unit to power (the motor is not connected), the breaker immediately trips even though there is almost no load on the circuit. I am wondering if the VFD is either configured for 220V or DC input, even though the sticker on the side of the unit specifically says AC 120 1ph. I believe that my wiring is correct, but it is possible that both the included L and N wires are for power in, but I just assumed line and neutral. Is my wiring correct, or does this VFD just not support 120V AC power? I have a couple of photos attached.
