NOTES:
1. Follow local codes and regulations when selecting field wires.
2. Select the GFCI with activation speed of 0.1 sec. or less.
3. Total operating current is less than 12A.
● Confirm for the recommended size GFCI shown in Table 8.1.
● Between indoor and outdoor units, communication cabling shall be a minimum of AWG18 (0.82mm
2
),
2-Conductor, Stranded Copper. Shielded cable must be considered for applications and routing in
areas of high EMI and other sources of potentially excessive electrical noise to reduce the potential for
communication errors. When shielded cabling is applied, proper bonding and termination of the cable
shield is required as per Johnson Controls guidelines. Plenum and riser ratings for communication
cables must be considered per application and local code requirements. Total cable length must not
exceed 3281 ft (1000m).
● Select the wiring size, Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) in accordance with the regulations for
each region, the "Installation and Maintenance Manual", and the dedicated electrical circuit that must be
used.
● Outside of the indoor unit, installation of the power supply wiring, communication cable, and wired
controller cable should be spaced as far apart as possible.

8.2.2 Details of Electrical Wiring Connection
The electrical wiring capacity of the outdoor unit should be according to the "Installation and Maintenance
Manual" for the outdoor unit. Adjusting the DIP switches may be required depending on the arrangement
of the outdoor unit.
Select wiring capacity according to Table 8.1. Install a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) and main
switch as shown in each of the system diagrams below.
