Knockout Hole; Selecting Power Supply Cable And Breaker; Transmission Line - Fujitsu Airstage AOU72RLAVL Installation Manual

6.2. Knockout hole

Be careful not to deform or scratch the panel while opening the knockout holes.
After opening the knockout hole, remove the burr on the edges to prevent snapping of
cables.
It is recommended to apply rust proof paint on the edges to prevent rust.
Knockout holes are provided in front and lateral sides for wiring.

6.3. Selecting power supply cable and breaker

Obtain the distribution network operator's agreement about the power capacity of the
power supply system and specifi cation of the cable. when you connect the outdoor unit
with the power supply.
Regulation of wire size and circuit breaker diff ers from each locality, please refer in ac-
cordance with local rules.
• Select the power cable type and size in accordance with relevant local and national regu-
lations.
• Make sure the specifi cations for local wiring power cable and branch wiring are in compli-
ance with local code.
• Select the correct cable type and size according to the country or region's regulations.
• Use copper conductors only.
• Max. wire length: Set a length so that the voltage drop is less than 2%. Increase the wire
diameter when the wire length is longer.
Selecting power supply cable and breaker when connecting single outdoor unit.
Refer to the table for the breaker specifi cations of each installation condition.

• Select the appropriate breaker of the described specifi cation according to the national or
regional standards.
• Select the breaker that enough load current can pass through it.

6.4. Transmission line

Caution when wiring cable:
When stripping off the coating of lead wire, always use the exclusive tool such as a
wire stripper. If there is no exclusive tool available necessarily, carefully strip the coat-
ing by a cutter etc. so that the conductive wire is not damaged.
If it is damaged, it may lead to an open circuit and a communication error.
Pay attention to the following points while attaching wires on the terminal board.
• Do not attach 2 wires on one side.
• Do not twist wires.
• Do not cross the wires.
• Do not shorted at edge at root.

Transmission cable
(0.33 mm²)
Twisted pair with shielded type.
Use the shielded wire specified and always ground it both end.
6.4.2 Wiring rules
(1) Total length of transmission cable
Total transmission line length: MAX 11,811 ft (3,600 m)
EF + EG + GH + HJ + HK + KL < 11,811 ft (3,600 m) (Fig.2)
In the following cases, Signal Amplifier is required.
1) When the total length of the transmission line exceeded 1,640 ft (500 m).
AB + BC + BD > 1,640 ft (500 m) (Fig.1)
2) When the total number of units* is over 64.
3) Transmission line length between each unit* ≥ 1,312 ft (400 m)
(2) Length of transmission cable between 1 network segment (NS)
EF + EG + GH + HJ + HK ≤ 1,640 ft (500 m) (Fig.2)
KL ≤ 1,312 ft (400 m) (Fig.2)
Unit* means indoor unit, outdoor unit, Touch Panel Controller and System Controller,
Signal Amplifier, single split adaptor, Network Convertor etc.
