Total operating current of the indoor
unit
F0 = 15A or less *2
F0 = 20A or less *2
F0 = 30A or less *2
Apply to IEC61000-3-3 about max. permissive system impedance.
*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
F2 = {V1 × (Quantity of Type1)/C} + {V1 × (Quantity of Type2)/C} + {V1 × (Quantity of Type3)/C} + {V1 × (Quantity of Others)/C}

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 PEFY-NMSU × 4 + PEFY-NMAU × 1, C = 8 (refer to right sample chart)
F2 = 18.6 × 4/8 + 38 × 1/8
= 14.05
→ 16A breaker (Tripping current = 8 × 16A 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])

5.. Power supply wiring
• Install an earth line longer than other cables.
• Power supply codes of appliance shall not be lighter than design 245IEC57 or
227IEC57, 245 IEC 53 or 227 IEC 53.
• A switch with at least 3 mm, 1/8 inch contact separation in each pole shall be
provided by the air conditioner installation.
