Why in a three pin plug the earth pin is thicker and longer
than the other pins?
Answer Posted / ranjith
The third pin is thicker than other pins so as to avoid the
lekage current to circulate in the circuit. As the
thickness is high so that the resistance path will be
reduced and the current can be conducted as the fault
current is 5 to 10 times larger than the cupply current

Is a contactor (or master relay) required between incoming lines and a VFD? The question goes to safety. If a contactor were used before the VFD and an e-stop engaged then the motor will coast to a stop (i.e. VFD loses power) instead of stopping much faster if the VFD braking fucntion were used. It would make more sense to keep power on the VFD.
