Daikin DP16H M Series Installation Instructions Manual page 8

Main power wiring should be sized for the minimum circuit
ampacity shown on the unit's database. Size wires in
accordance with the ampacity tables in Article 310 of the
National Electrical Code. If long wires are required, it
may be necessary to increase the wire size to prevent
excessive voltage drop. Wires should be sized for a
maximum of 3% voltage drop.
To avoid risk of property damage, personal
injury or fire, use only copper conductors.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when
servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause
improper and dangerous operation. Verify
proper operation after servicing.
NOTE: A weather-tight disconnect switch,
properly sized for the unit total load, must be
field or factory installed. An external field
supplied disconnect may be mounted on the
exterior panel.
Ensure the data plate is not covered by the field-supplied
disconnect switch.
• Some disconnect switches are not fused. Protect
the power leads at the point of distribution in
accordance with the unit data plate.
• The unit must be electrically grounded in accordance
with local codes or, in the absence of local codes,
with the latest edition of the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA 70, and/or the Canadian Electrical Code,
CSA C22.1, Part 1. A ground lug is provided for this
purpose. Do not use the ground lug for connecting a
neutral conductor.
• Connect power wiring to the electrical power block
located within the main control box.

note: depending on the options installed, the
location of the components may vary in some
models.
Failure of unit due to operation on improper
line voltage or with excessive phase unbalance
constitutes product abuse and will void your
warranty and may cause severe damage to the
unit electrical components.
Areas Without Convenience Outlet
It is recommended that an independent 115V power source
be brought to the vicinity of the roof top unit for portable
lights and tools used by the service mechanic.
NOTE: Refer to local codes for requirements.
These outlets can also be factory installed.
Units installed on Roof Tops
Main power and low voltage wiring may enter the unit
through the condenser end of unit or through the roof curb.
Install conduit connectors at the desired entrance locations.
External connectors must be weatherproof. All holes in the
unit base must be sealed (including those around conduit
nuts) to prevent water leakage into building. All required
conduit and fittings are to be field supplied.
Supply voltage to roof top unit must not vary by more than
10% of the value indicated on the unit data plate. Phase
voltage unbalance must not exceed 2%. Contact your
local power company for correction of improper voltage or
phase unbalance.
