This warning indicates an abnormal DC bus voltage, potentially affecting device performance and even system safety. Bus voltage is the electrical potential measured on a shared conductor, or “bus,” that distributes power or signals between components in a system. Because it's so common, some newer drives try to assist with locating the issue by providing more information about what the drive was doing. My SRT 5kxli had a issue in which dc bus over voltage is occurred in logs and load dropped. Kindly tell me the reason and solution. Authentication Ticket. What could cause the DC bus voltage on a drive to drop when the motor is heavily loaded? Cause for DC bus voltage to drop when the motor is loaded? In this case, as the speed of the motor increases, and/or as the load on the motor increases, the DC bus voltage is dropping and the motor current is. Regenerative drives are built to handle excess energy, but when voltage levels spike beyond safe limits, your drive trips to protect itself. Maybe it only happens during high deceleration? Or maybe it's completely random? Either way, production stops, and downtime starts adding up fast.
