How to Solve Fanuc Drive Alarm 24?

AUG. 12, 2025

If you're using a CNC machine with a Fanuc servo drive and a Alarm 24 pops up on the screen, you're going to be stumped for a second. Don't let the name scare you, but it's most likely a reminder - “I'm running low on voltage”. If you don't do anything about it, the machine may just crash and your order will be delayed.

How to Solve Fanuc Drive Alarm 24?
This kind of alarm is quite common on the Alpha, Alpha i, and Beta series, and it may pop up when you turn on the machine, or it may suddenly stop halfway through the run. Simply put, the voltage in the main circuit of the servo amplifier is not up to standard.
 
Why Does It Come Up?
To put it bluntly, there is something wrong with the power supply. There are several common reasons for this:

* Factory voltage is unstable, or the voltage coming in is already low.
* Cable connectors are loose, oxidized, and have bad contacts.
* Drive in the power supply module aging.
* Control board out of trouble.
* Short circuit or overload of the motor or line.
* Damage to the power cord.
* Suddenly a large load start in the workshop, the voltage drops instantly.
 
How to Deal with the Scene?
Don't rush to call the overhaul team first, there are some small problems that you can troubleshoot first by yourself:

1. First power off - Safety first. Touch the connectors of all power and signal cables, tighten the loose ones, and wipe the dirty ones clean.
2. Measure the voltage - Use a multimeter to measure the incoming voltage. See and Fanuc specified value difference how much (generally rated value up or down within 10% can be).
3. Glance at the driver - Any burn marks, bulging capacitors, discolored components.
4. Change a stable power supply to try - If it can be connected to a stable power supply to run a run, you can determine whether it is a plant power supply problem.
5. Spare parts on the replacement - Have a good power module or control board on hand, you can first change up to try.

If these do not work, then most likely have to send for repair or replacement parts.

What Parts Can I Keep on Hand to Save the Day?
In some factories, a machine stoppage is a big deal, so it is recommended to keep some critical Fanuc parts on hand:

* Power supply module.
* Main control board.
* Power cables and connectors.
* Cooling fans, filters.
* Tested used drives (direct replacement in critical moments).

We can also fix it, test it before we fix it, and then run the test again to try to help you minimize downtime.

How to Encounter Less Alarm 24 in the Future

* Keep an eye on the voltage fluctuations at the plant, don't let it get too far out of line.
* Tighten the terminals once a month.
* Keep drive cabinets clean and ventilated.
* Regularly measure the load, don't let the motor run overloaded for a long time.
* Aging parts replaced in advance.

Fanuc drive alarm 24 may sound scary, but there are quite a few ways to really deal with it. The key is not to procrastinate - once it's down, the clock starts ticking on the damage.
