I decided to install three new 110 v outlets at my grinder bench to accommodate my power tools. The county electrical code requires GFI outlets when any upgrades are accomplished, so I installed 3 GFI outlets.
Now my baldor 8” grinder doesn’t work. It is powered with a Teco L510 110 to 220 3 phase VFD. when I push the on button, the VFD powers up the grinder for maybe 2 or 3 seconds, then the gfi circuit trips and the grinder goes dead.
Of course, with the old standard plugs, the VFD and grinder work just fine. But the electrical inspectors won’t sign off on old style plugs, demand GFI’s.
Any one advise me how to fix this? Maybe some parameter in the VFD?
thanks
