This fault can be caused by:
Over Current
• Using wrong motor (wrong voltage or phase).
• Mechanical binding from debris in pump.
• Electrical or mechanical failure of the motor.
• Incorrect setting of "MOTOR OVERLOAD SETTING (SFA)"
The controller estimates the motor temperature by
comparing the output current to the Motor Overload Setting
and monitoring the output frequency. If the motor runs at
high output or is current limiting the motor temperature

In order to help system troubleshooting, the motor
temperature estimate can be reset by performing a system
reset (software versions 6x.4.xx and later). To perform a
system reset, press and hold the UP and DOWN buttons for
10 seconds. It is also recommended to reset the fault history
(refer to Advanced Menu section for details) because the
number of Over Current faults stored in fault history is used
to determine the motor temperature estimate.
