Disconnect must be located within sight of the unit and read- ily accessible from the unit in compliance with NEC Article 440-14.

All ®eld wiring must comply with NEC and all local codes. Size wire based on MCA (Minimum Circuit Amps) value shown on the unit informative plate. See Fig. 12 for power wiring connections to the unit power terminal block and equip- ment ground.

Operating voltage to the compressor must be within the volt- age range indicated on the unit nameplate. Voltages between phases must be balanced within 2%, and the current must be balanced within 10%. See Table 5 for unit electrical data.

Use the following formula to determine the percent voltage imbalance.

% Voltage Imbalance

max voltage deviation from average voltage

= 100 x

average voltage

EXAMPLE: Supply voltage is 460-3-60.

AB = 452 v BC = 464 v AC = 455 v

452 + 464 + 455

Average Voltage =

3

1371

=

3 = 457

Determine maximum deviation from average voltage: (AB) 457 − 452 = 5 v

(BC) 464 − 457 = 7 v (AC) 457 − 455 = 2 v

Maximum deviation is 7 v.

Determine percent voltage imbalance:

7

% Voltage Imbalance = 100 x

457

= 1.53%

This amount of phase imbalance is satisfactory as it is be- low the maximum allowable 2%.

IMPORTANT: If the supply voltage phase imbalance is more than 2%, contact local utility immediately.

Unit failure as a result of operation on improper line volt- age or excessive phase imbalance constitutes abuse and may cause damage to electrical components.
