Electric characteristics
MCA : Minimum Circuit Amps
MOCP : Maximum Overcurrent Protection (Amps)
Control wire
Remote control wiring
2-core with non-polarity wire is used for wiring of the remote control wiring and group remote controls wiring.
NOTE
• Use copper supply wire.
• Use UL wire rated 600 V for the power supply.
• Use UL wire rated 300 V for the remote control wires and control wires.

CAUTION
The remote control wire (Communication line) and AC208 / 230 V wires cannot be parallel to contact each other and
cannot be stored in the same conduits. If doing so, a trouble may be caused on the control system due to noise or other
factor.
Wiring between indoor and outdoor units
NOTE
An outdoor unit connected with control wiring between indoor and outdoor units wire becomes automatically the header
unit.
