Power Wiring / Communications Cable Guidelines
• Follow manufacturer's circuit diagrams in the technical manuals.
• Confirm power source specifications.
• Confirm that the electrical capacity is sufficient.
• Starting current must be maintained ±10 percent of the rated current marked on the outdoor unit name plate.
• Confirm cable thickness specifications.
• It is recommended that a circuit breaker is installed, especially if conditions could become wet or moist.
• Include a disconnect in the power wiring system, add an air gap contact separation of at least 1/8 inch in each active (phase) conductor.
• Loose wiring may cause unit malfunction, or the terminal to overheat and catch fire.
• Terminal screws may become loose during transport. Properly tighten the terminal connections during installation.
A voltage drop may cause the following problems:
• Magnetic switch vibration, fuse breaks, or disturbance to the normal function of an overload protection device.
• Compressor will not receive the proper starting current.
Connecting the Power Wiring and Communications Cable
1. Insert the power wiring / communications cable from the out-
door unit or branch distribution unit (Multi F MAX systems only)
through the bottom of the indoor unit.
2. Connect each wire to its appropriate terminal on the indoor unit
control board. Verify that the color and terminal numbers from
the outdoor unit or branch distribution unit (Multi F MAX systems
only) wiring match the color and terminal numbers on the indoor
unit.
3. Secure the power wiring / communications cable with the cable
restraint.
