● Precautions
1. Do not lay signal cables next to power line in order to prevent miss-operations.
2. Maintain a distance of 50 mm or more between the power lines of other air-conditioning units
manufactured by Panasonic.
3. Maintain a distance of 300 mm or more between other power lines.
4. In the event of the cables needing to be laid within the above-mentioned distances, make sure one of
them is enclosed in a steel power-line conduit.
5. When shielded cables are in use, make sure one side is grounded.
6. Do not use the same cable for signal cables and power cables. (Fig.1)
7. Do not use multi-core cables for two or more signal cables. (Fig.2)
8. If high-frequency equipment exists nearby, make sure the units are installed at least 3 m away from
them.
Enclose the remote controller in a steel box and the remote controller wires in a steel conduit or steel
conduit pipe.
9. Remote controller wires can be connected to a maximum of two items of control equipment to which
connections are possible. However only one can be used per group for simple remote controllers
equipped with backlights. They cannot be used in combination.
10. It is prohibited for the refrigerant system to be shared between units and for certain indoor units to be
group controlled. Failure to observe this may result in misaligned modes and certain indoor units not
operating.
