WIRING

The main power is supplied to the outdoor unit. The field supplied connecting cable from the outdoor unit to indoor unit consists of four wires and provides the power for the indoor unit as well as the communication signal between the outdoor unit and indoor unit.

Voltage drop on the connecting cable should be kept to a minimum. Use cable size and max length below:

18 AWG

50 ft. (16 m)

16 AWG

100 ft. (33 m)
