How would I select the appropriate line wire size to be used on Altivar drives?

Issue:
How would I select the appropriate line wire size to be used on Altivar drives?

Product Line:
Altivar drives

Environment:
All

Cause:
Need to know the appropriate wire size for mains

Resolution:
Generally, the applicable drive's Quick Start Guide and/or Installation Manual lists the recommended wire size to use on the line terminals. You would normally size the wire you're using according to NEC and use a rating of 125% of the input line current for the rated drive.
