Electrical installation
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
WARNING
▪ All wiring MUST be performed by an authorised
electrician and MUST comply with the national wiring
regulation.
▪ Make electrical connections to the fixed wiring.
▪ All components procured on-site and all electrical
construction MUST comply with the applicable
legislation.
WARNING
ALWAYS use multicore cable for power supply cables.
WARNING
Use an all-pole disconnection type breaker with at least
3 mm between the contact point gaps that provides full
disconnection under overvoltage category III.
WARNING
If the supply cord is damaged, it MUST be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
WARNING
Do NOT connect the power supply to the indoor unit. This
could result in electrical shock or fire.
WARNING
▪ Do NOT use locally purchased electrical parts inside
the product.
▪ Do NOT branch the power supply for the drain pump,
etc. from the terminal block. This could result in
electrical shock or fire.
WARNING
Keep the interconnection wiring away from copper pipes
without thermal insulation as such pipes will be very hot.
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
All electrical parts (including thermistors) are powered by
the power supply. Do NOT touch them with bare hands.

NOTICE
We recommend using solid (single-core) wires. If stranded
wires are used, slightly twist the strands to consolidate the
end of the conductor for either direct use in the terminal
clamp or insertion in a round crimp-style terminal. Details
are described in "Guidelines when connecting the electrical
wiring" in the installer reference guide.
