Is there a way to check the wiring is done for inverter? My contractor did two sets of aircond wiring. One is inside master bedroom and the other one is in the living hall.

This is the sample of his job for my master bedroom. inverter for 1-1.5hp

I haven't paid him on hacking and concealing yet so want to confirm if this is really done for inverter type aircond. Many thanks in advance.

This is the comment that I received from Panasonic Malaysia pertaining to my inverter aircon.

"Please note that installing Panasonic wall mounted Inverter type of air conditioner [1.0hp – 2.5hp using R410A as refrigerant] requires a minimum of 0.6mm thickness of copper piping and indoor and outdoor units must be connected with 4 wires (which are live, neutral, communication and earth wires). "

Hope this helps...

The installer put in 3 wires, even if your copper is thick for inverter your selection of inverter a/c is limited. Cause some inverter use 5 wires, and some use 4 wires.

If the copper hose is for inverter, you can still use some of the inverter (4 wires) by using the copper hose as earth, the red = Live, Black = neutral, and green = Signal/communication.

sigh the contractor insists that it is a inverter wiring with thick copper. later go to sengheng to clarify more.

Is he expect you buy Daikin Inverter?

Can daikin works with only 3 wire? I never knew that there's a specific condition. Is Daikin any good? if its the only way why not then. Rather than paying him to hack the wall again.
