ABB ACS580 VFD Fault Code 2310

ABB Electrical Critical Current

Model: ACS580 | Code: 2310

Applicable Systems
ACS580 ACS880 ACS510 ACS550 ACS800

Symptoms

The drive has detected an output current exceeding the overcurrent trip threshold. The motor and drive are immediately stopped to prevent damage.

Possible Causes

  • Motor or cable short circuit between phases or to ground
  • Motor load is too heavy or mechanically jammed
  • Acceleration time is too short causing excessive starting current
  • Motor parameters do not match the actual motor
  • IGBT power module damage in the drive

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. Step 1: Check motor and cable insulation with a megger (insulation tester)
    Insulation resistance is above minimum (typically >1 Mohm for standard motors)
  2. Step 2: Verify motor parameters in group 99 match the motor nameplate
    All motor nameplate data is correctly entered
  3. Step 3: Increase acceleration time parameter (group 22) to reduce starting current
    No overcurrent trip with longer acceleration time
  4. Step 4: Check for mechanical jams or excessive load on the motor shaft
    Motor can rotate freely without excessive mechanical resistance
  5. Step 5: If the fault persists, the IGBT module may be damaged - contact ABB service
    Drive is repaired or replaced by authorized service

How to Reset

To reset: 1) Resolve the overcurrent condition. 2) Press the RESET button on the panel or send a reset command via fieldbus. 3) Restart the motor. Do NOT reset without fixing the root cause.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q: What causes fault 2310 on ABB ACS580?

    Overcurrent - check motor/cable insulation, motor parameters, acceleration time, and mechanical load. If it recurs after fixing these, the IGBT module may be damaged.
