# GS-BR-300W400 braking-resistor DWG The GS-BR-300W400 is a braking resistor used with compatible AC drive equipment. A braking resistor turns permitted regenerated electrical energy into heat; it is not the drive itself.

The GS-BR-300W400 is a braking resistor used with compatible AC drive equipment. A braking resistor turns permitted regenerated electrical energy into heat; it is not the drive itself. ### A simple example A panel layout may need to place a resistor separately from its drive while allowing the installation and heat-management arrangements specified by the manufacturer. ### What the drawings help you do Open GS-BR-300W400.DWG from the drive archive. Use the drawing to coordinate the resistor’s body and fixing points. Drive compatibility, braking duty, electrical connection and thermal clearances require the selected manufacturer instructions; the archive name alone establishes none of them. ### Before using this reference - Identify the exact resistor and compatible drive arrangement. - Check mounting and required separation from other equipment. - Reference the specified braking duty and connection instructions. ### Is a resistor with a similar shape an equivalent replacement? No. Resistance, power/duty capability and the selected drive’s requirements matter in addition to geometry. Use the exact selection documentation. ### Terms - Geometry: The physical shape represented by the model or drawing. - Configuration: The exact equipment version and options selected for the installation. - Revision: The recorded version of the file or document.
