Connecting the Power Terminal
Connect the cables to the terminal board using the compressed ring terminal.
Connect the rated cables only.
Connect using a wrench which is able to apply the rated torque to the screws.
If the terminal is loose, fire may occur caused by arc.
If the terminal is connected too firmly, the terminal may be damaged.
Installing the Earth Wire
Earthing must be done by your installation specialist for your safety.
Use the earth wire by referring to the specification of the electric cable
for the outdoor unit.
Earthing the power cable
The standard of earthing may vary according to the rated voltage and
installation place of the air conditioner.
Earth the power cable according to the following.

Note 1) Earthing work 3
Earthing must be done by your installation specialist.
Check if the earthing resistance is lower than 100Ω.
When installing a circuit breaker that can cut the electric circuit in case of a short
circuit, the allowable earthing resistance can be 30~500Ω.
Note 2) Earthing at dry place
The earthing resistance should be lower than 100Ω. (Even in worst case it should
be lower than 250Ω.)
