Your plug point socket is a ON/OFF switch. Just switch it OFF will do.
By the way, the power consume is very minimal. probably 1-5w or less. The consume is in electronic side for the remote detecting. |

QUOTE(spdboyz @ Feb 17 2012, 12:01 PM) The ON/OFF switch is for the unused plug point and not for the air conditioner. I can power on the air conditioner from the remote even though the switch on plug point is OFF. Didn't see the picture trunking. It tap the wire inside the wall socket. Got 2 choice. Takeout the wire inside the wall socket, install another wall ON/OFF switch beside the wall socket. And aircon wire connect to the ON/OFF wall switch.The unit manual state the air conditioner always consumes 15-35 watts of electricity even while it is not operating.  Install another ON/OFF switch somewhere between the wire at your comfort level. Or takeout the wire from the wall socket and put in a 3pin plug. Than you can ON/OFF from the socket. That is cheapest way. What aircon in stanby mode consume that much power? |
