Hi All,

Fingers crossed I have put this thread in the right place - apologies if not..

I recently stumbled across this forum, not sure how I missed it up until now but that's another story lol

Anyway to cut to the chase I started building my first CNC towards the end of last year, as is normally the way things set me back and other projects took all my time up. On the proside I how have it 95% wired up and motion control is working a treat. All I'm left with is the VFD.

Now I'm sure this is a pretty basic/stupid question but here goes:

Am I correct in thinking the VFD (2.2kw) can be powered directly from the plug socket (via an isolator)? Or does it have to be wired via a separate power source?

I just don't want to plug it in and blow it up within seconds,

Many thanks in advance.

Bez
