Page 6: Lcdi Power Cord & Plug
LCDI POWER CORD & PLUG This air conditioner is equipped with an LCDI (Leakage Current Detection and Interruption) power cord and plug as required by US National Electric Code 440.65. This cord consists of a length of shielded flexible cord with no termination on the load side and a LCDI attachment plug on the line side. The LCDI power cord and plug will remove the supply source via electrical disconnect (circuit trip) if the nominal current leakage between the cord shield and either load conductor exceeds a predetermined value. The cord will remain de-energized until the device has been manually reset. This is intended to reduce the risk of a fire in the power cord or combustible materials nearby. The cord shields are not grounded and they must be considered shock hazards if exposed. The cord shield must not be connected to the ground or to any exposed metal. The test and reset buttons on the LCDI Plug are used to check if the plug is functioning properly. To test, follow the steps below that correspond to the plug on your unit: LCDI POWER CORD &... -
