LG Terminal Connections
LG uses a “JIS” type of screw for all terminals; use a JIS screwdriver to tighten and
loosen these screws and avoid damaging the terminal. Do not over tighten the
connections — over tightening may damage the terminals — but firmly and securely
attach the wiring in a way to prevent external forces from being imparted to the termi-
nal block.

Do not include splices or wire nuts in the communication cable.

Always have a trained service provider properly ground the outdoor unit. If the outdoor unit is not properly grounded, there is a risk of
electric shock, physical injury, or death.
Provide a circuit breaker between the power source and the outdoor unit. Failure to do so may cause bodily injury or death.
Multi F and Multi F MAX with LGRED systems operate at 1Ø, 208-230V, 60Hz, and
power is wired to the outdoor unit only. The outdoor unit will supply power to the indoor
units and the branch distribution units (Multi F MAX with LGRED systems only) through
the communication / connection (power) cable.
Power supply to the outdoor unit must be selected based on NEC and local codes. Maxi-
mum allowable voltage fluctuation ±10% or nameplate rated value.
Power wiring to the outdoor unit(s) must be solid or stranded, and must comply with all
local and national electrical codes.
Properly ground the outdoor unit and indoor unit per NEC and local codes.
Ground wire must be longer than the common power / communication wires.
Connect the wiring firmly so the wires cannot be easily pulled out.
Refer to the inside of the chassis cover or control cover for circuit and terminal block
diagrams.
Always match color codes of each wire and follow wiring diagram.
Do not install power wiring to the outdoor unit and the communication / connection (power) cable to the indoor unit in the same conduit.
Use separate conduits.
