ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
W IRING C ONNECTIONS
• Have a licensed Electrician install a dedicated circuit from the distribution board with a
separate circuit breaker for each unit installed.
• Unit connection isolating switch provided on the corner post of each unit.
WARNING: Multiple unit connections to a single wall control. Live wires
for the control circuit may not be isolated. Isolate the master unit.
• Circuit breaker selection and cable size must be made relevant to the current rating of
the motor and the circuit breaker motor kW specifications.
• Where the units are turned on and off in the high speed setting, a soft start timer must
be provided by the installer to start the unit on low speed.
• The control panel connection point must be easily accessible for service and
maintenance.
• Check to see if the voltage of the air conditioner is compatible with your electrical
system voltage. Check that there will not be excessive voltage drop, which will cause
the unit to run inefficiently or even cause motor burn out. ±5% of the motor
nameplate voltage is usually acceptable by motor manufacturers.
• Prior to completing the installation an electrician must check that the air conditioner is
operating correctly, and that the fan is rotating in the correct direction, on both
speeds.
• Replace all lids and covers.
• The manufacturer advises that they will not be held responsible for replacement of
parts or labour costs on electrical components which fail as a result of incorrect
wiring.
W IRING – I MPORTANT N OTES
• A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN must carry out all electrical connection wiring to
the unit. It is the responsibility of the LICENSED ELECTRICIAN that the unit is
connected as per AS3000 (Wiring rules) and any local regulations and statutory
or legal requirements.
• Where units are clustered using a single wall control for multiple units, the unit
control box must be labelled indicating live wires inside. There will be voltage
in the control circuit if all units in the cluster are not isolated in the multiple
connections.
