Units without Factory-Installed Disconnect —

When installing units, provide a disconnect switch per NEC (National Electrical Code) of adequate size. Disconnect sizing data is provided on the unit informative plate. Locate on unit cabinet or within sight of the unit per national or local codes. Do not cover unit informative plate if mounting the disconnect on the unit cabinet.

Units with Factory-Installed Disconnect —

The factory-installed option disconnect switch is located in the main control box. The manual switch handle is accessible on the corner post adjacent to the control box access panel.

All Units -

All field wiring must comply with NEC and all local code requirements.

Size wire based on MCA (Minimum Circuit Amps) on the unit informative plate. See Fig. 25 for power wiring connections to the unit power terminal block and equipment ground. Maximum wire size is 2/0 AWG per pole.

Provide a ground-fault and short-circuit over-current protection device (fuse or breaker) per NEC Article 440 (or local codes). Refer to unit informative data plate for MOCP (Maximum Over-current Protection) device size.

Voltage to compressor terminals during operation must be within voltage range indicated on unit nameplate. See Table 11. On 3-phase units, voltages between phases must be balanced within 2% and the current within 10%. Use the formula shown in the legend for Table 11 (see Note 2 on page 49) to determine the percent of voltage imbalance.
