1. Install a branch circuit disconnect within sight
of the unit and of adequate size to handle the
minimum circuit ampacity (MCA) current (see
“Electrical Data” in Section 3.2).
2. Field wiring must comply with the National Electric
Code (C.E.C. in Canada) and any applicable local
code.
3. Power wiring must be run in a rain-tight conduit.
Conduit must be attached to the hole in the
bottom of the control box.
4. Connect power wiring to line-voltage lugs on the
terminal block located in the outdoor heat pump
unit electrical box. (See wiring diagram attached
to unit access panel.)
5. Check all electrical connections, including
factory wiring within the unit and make sure all
connections are tight.
6. DO NOT connect aluminum field wire to the line
voltage terminal block.
