Do not use gas piping as an electrical ground. Unit cabinet
must have an uninterrupted, unbroken electrical ground to
minimize the possibility of personal injury if an electrical
fault should occur. This ground may consist of electrical
wire connected to unit ground lug in control compartment,
or conduit approved for electrical ground when installed in
accordance with NEC (National Electrical Code); ANSI/
NFPA 70, latest edition (in Canada, Canadian Electrical
Code CSA [Canadian Standards Association] C22.1), and
local electrical codes.
FIRE HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in intermittent
operation or performance satisfaction.
Do not connect aluminum wire between disconnect switch
and condensing unit. Use only copper wire.
