Step 6 — Make Electrical Connections
FIELD POWER SUPPLY — Unit is factory wired for volt-
age shown on nameplate.
When installing units, provide a disconnect, per NEC
(National Electrical Code) requirements, of adequate size
(Table 2). Electrical heater data is shown in Table 3.
All field wiring must comply with NEC and local require-
ments.
Route power lines through control box access panel or unit
basepan (Fig. 4 and 5) to connections as shown on unit wiring
diagram and Fig. 11.
Operating voltage to compressor must be within voltage
range indicated on unit nameplate. On 3-phase units, voltages
between phases must be balanced within 2% and the current
must be balanced within 10%.
Use the following formula to determine the percentage of
voltage imbalance.
Percentage of Voltage Imbalance
EXAMPLE: Supply voltage is 460-3-60.
AB = 452 v
BC = 464 v
AC = 455 v
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:
= 1.53%
This amount of phase imbalance is satisfactory as it is be-
low the maximum allowable 2%.
Unit failure as a result of operation on improper line voltage
or excessive phase imbalance constitutes abuse and may cause
damage to electrical components.
FIELD CONTROL WIRING — Install a Carrier-approved
accessory thermostat assembly according to the installation in-
structions included with the accessory. Locate thermostat as-
sembly on a solid wall in the conditioned space to sense aver-
age temperature.
Route thermostat cable or equivalent single leads of colored
wire from subbase terminals through conduit in unit to low-
voltage connections as shown on unit label wiring diagram and
in Fig. 12.
NOTE: For wire runs up to 50 ft, use no. 18 AWG (American
Wire Gage) insulated wire (35 C minimum). For 50 to 75 ft,
use no. 16 AWG insulated wire (35 C minimum). For over
75 ft, use no. 14 AWG insulated wire (35 C minimum). All
wire larger than no. 18 AWG cannot be directly connected to
the thermostat and will require a junction box and splice at the
thermostat.
Set heat anticipator settings as indicated in Table 4. Settings
may be changed slightly to provide a greater degree of comfort
for a particular installation.
Refer to accessory remote control instructions as required.
The correct power phasing is critical in the operation of the
scroll compressors. An incorrect phasing will cause the
compressor to rotate in the wrong direction. This may lead
to premature compressor failure.

IMPORTANT: If the supply voltage phase imbalance is
more than 2%, contact your local electric utility com-
pany immediately.
