Cable diameter
Maximum length of transmission lines for centralized control and indoor/
outdoor transmission lines (Maximum length via indoor units):
Remarks
The maximum length of the wiring between power supply unit for
transmission lines (on the transmission lines for centralized control) and
each outdoor unit and system controller is 200 m [656 ft].
*1 Connected with simple remote controller.
9.1. Power supply wiring
•
Use dedicated power supplies for the indoor unit.
•
Bear in mind ambient conditions (ambient temperature, direct sunlight, rain water, etc.) when proceeding with the wiring and connections.
•
The wire size is the minimum value for metal conduit wiring. If the voltage drops, use a wire that is one rank thicker in diameter. Make sure the power-supply voltage
does not drop more than 10%.
•
�����������������������������������������
•
Power supply cords of appliances shall not be lighter than design 245 IEC 57, 227 IEC 57, 245 IEC 53 or 227 IEC 53.
•
A switch with at least 3 mm [1/8 in] contact separation in each pole shall be provided by the Air conditioner installation.

*1 The Ground-fault interrupter should support Inverter circuit.
The Ground-fault interrupter should combine using of local switch or wiring breaker.
*2 Please take the larger of F1 or F2 as the value for F0.
F1 = Total operating maximum current of the indoor units × 1.2

C : Multiple of tripping current at tripping time 0.01s
Please pick up "C" from the tripping characteristic of the breaker.
<Example of "F2" calculation>
*Condition TPEFYP***MS140C × 4 + TPEFYP***MA143A × 1, C = 8 (refer to right sample chart)
F2 = 18.6 × 4/8 + 38 × 1/8
= 14.05
→ 16 A breaker (Tripping current = 8 × 16 A at 0.01s)
*3 Current sensitivity is calculated using the following formula.
G1 = (V2 × Quantity of Type1) + (V2 × Quantity of Type2) + (V2 × Quantity of Type3) + (V2 × Quantity of Others) + (V3 × Wire length [km])
