Breaker should be installed at every refrigerant system. Do not use a breaker in a different
refrigerant system.
Refer to the table for the breaker specifications of each installation condition. Perform
the power crossover wiring within the range of the same refrigerant system. When the
crossover wiring is done, make a connection for indoor units to satisfy conditions A and B
below.

When the power crossover wiring is done, make it so that the total of the MCA of the con-
nected RB units and indoor units does not exceed the 11 A. For RB unit MCA, refer to the
RB unit installation manual.
If the capacity of connected RB units and indoor units exceeds the upper limit, either add
breakers or use a breaker with a greater capacity.
B. Ground Fault Equipment Breaker requirements
Breaker capacity
Maximum connectable “indoor units” or
“indoor units + RB units” (*1)
30 mA, 0.1 sec or less 12 or less
100 mA, 0.1 sec or less 13 to 40 (*2)
*1: Heat pump type: indoor units, Heat recovery type: indoor units and RB units.
*2: If the 100 mA capacity breaker is not provided, split the quantity of the indoor units into
small groups of 12 units or less and provide a breaker with capacity of 30 mA for each
group.
When connecting different models on the above listed breaker in conjunction with the
ARUH72TLAV2/ARUH96TLAV2, you might be able to connect more than 12 units. To
determine the maximum amount of indoor units when using different models, reference
each units Design and Technical Manual to calculate the total amount of units that can be
connected on a given breaker.

Adjust the length of power supply cable to avoid excessive tension with referring figure
below.

A. For solid core wiring
(1) To connect the electrical terminal, follow the below diagram and connect after looping
it around the end of the cable.
(2) Use the specified cables, connect them securely, and fasten them so that there is no
stress placed on the terminals.
(3) Use an appropriate screwdriver to tighten the terminal screws. Do not use a screw-
driver that is too small, otherwise, the screw heads may be damaged and prevent the
screws from being properly tightened.
(4) Do not tighten the terminal screws too much, otherwise, the screws may break.
(5) See the table for the terminal screw tightening torques.
(6) Please do not fix 2 power supply cables with 1 screw.

WARNING
When using solid core cables, do not use the ring terminal. If you use the solid core
cables with the ring terminal, the ring terminal’s pressure bonding may malfunction and
cause the cables to abnormally heat up.
B. For strand wiring
(1) Use ring terminals with insulating sleeves as shown in the figure below to connect to
the terminal block.
(2) Securely clamp the ring terminals to the cables using an appropriate tool so that the
cables do not come loose.
(3) Use the specified cables, connect them securely, and fasten them so that there is no
stress placed on the terminals.
(4) Use an appropriate screwdriver to tighten the terminal screws. Do not use a screw-
driver that is too small, otherwise, the screw heads may be damaged and prevent the
screws from being properly tightened.
(5) Do not tighten the terminal screws too much, otherwise, the screws may break.
(6) See the table for the terminal screw tightening torques.
(7) Please do not fix 2 power supply cables with 1 screw.
