I've been using 4 inverter ac (1x2hp & 3 x 1hp) for the past 4 years. No issue except have to pay a lot to TNB whistling.gif Just make sure it's connected from different MCB.

No sign of wiring overheating or what so ever. icon_rolleyes.gif (Checked with FLIR thermal camera)

Borrow from my brother. His company have some project with TNB that uses FLIR. thumbup.gif

So far, everything normal. No sign of wiring overheating even though 4 ac are on simultaneously.

And I use this to check each AC current / load. All good thumbup.gif

I'm not worried about lighting load as 100% LED light use throughout my house. Too little load. thumbup.gif

yes i got exactly this lelong unit.. biggrin.gif  haha

am surprised 1HP aircon doesnt draw much energy if you set temp at 26-27C compared to 20-22C range!

Yup, setting temperature plays big role too. As for me, 24-25C is the sweet spot. Comfy, not too cold, not too warm. Just nice. 3 bedroom ac 9pm till 6am daily. Monthly TNB bill between RM270 (rainy season) - RM350 (hot / dry season) thumbup.gif

Borrow from my brother. Can't afford to buy one. FLIR super expensive. shakehead.gif

Try not to use thick blanket. Just thin blanket will do. 24-25C is nice setting. Also depends on the room. Make sure no gap that cold air can 'escape' whistling.gif
