Installation
2.6Electrical Connections
Each unit is shipped from the factory with all internal wiring completed. All power, control wiring and ground connections must be made in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes. Refer to equipment nameplate regarding wire size and circuit protection requirements. Refer to Figures 5, 7 and 8 and electrical schematic (reference Figures 9 through 11) when making connec- tions. A manual electrical disconnect switch should be installed within 5 feet (1.6 m) of the unit in accordance with codes.
! WARNING
Use voltmeter to be sure power is turned off before making any electrical connections.
! CAUTION
The
! CAUTION
Apply power to condenser 8 hours before operating system. This time is required to allow liquid refrigerant to be driven out of the compressor. This is especially important at low ambient temperatures. The compressor crankcase heater is energized as long as power is supplied to the unit.
