1. Prepare the cable for connection:
USE THE RIGHT CABLE
Please choose the right cable refer to
“
Cable types
” in page 23.
a. Using wire strippers, strip the rubber
jacket from both ends of cable to reveal
about 40mm (1.57in) of the wires inside.
b. Strip the insulation from the ends of the wires.
c. Using a wire crimper, crimp u-lugs on the
ends of the wires.
PAY
ATTENTION TO LIVE WIRE
While crimping wires, make sure you clearly
distinguish the Live (“L”) Wire from other wires.
7. Insulate unused wires with PVC electrical tape.
Arrange them so that they do not touch any
electrical or metal parts.
8. Replace the wire cover on the side of the unit,
and screw it in place.
2. Unscrew the electrical wiring cover and remove it.
3. Unscrew the cable clamp below the terminal
block and place it to the side.
4. Connect the wire according to the wiring
diagram, and firmly screw the u-lug of each
wire to its corresponding terminal.
5. After checking to make sure every connection is
secure, loop the wires around to prevent rain
water from flowing into the terminal.
6. Using the cable clamp, fasten the cable to the
unit. Screw the cable clamp down tightly.
1. Remove the wire cover from the unit by
loosening the 3 screws.
2. Dismount caps on the conduit panel.
3. Temperarily mount the conduit tubes(not
included) on the conduit panel.
