Units Without Factory-Installed Disconnect —

When installing units, provide a disconnect switch of adequate size per local or national wiring code. 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 a weatherproof enclosure located under the main control box. The manual switch handle is accessible through an opening in the access panel.

All units -

All field wiring must comply with all local codes. Size wire based on MCA (Minimum Circuit Amps) on the unit informative plate. See Fig. 18 for power wiring connections to the unit power terminal block and equipment ground.

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

All field wiring must comply with the appropriate national electrical codes and local requirements.

Thru-Base Connections —

This service connection kit consists of a 12.7 mm (1/2-in) electrical bulkhead connector and a 31.75 mm (11/4-in) electrical bulkhead connector, all factory-installed in the embossed (raised) section of the unit basepan in the condenser section. The 12.7 mm (1/2-in) bulkhead connector enables the low-voltage control wires to pass through the basepan. The 31.75 mm (11/4-in) electrical bulkhead connector allows the high-voltage power wires to pass through the basepan. See Fig. 19.
