Hello,
New to the forum and thanks for any replies.
I am looking to install either a Mitsubishi Floor Mounted Unit SRF35ZJX-S (4.5kW heating) or a Fujitsu AGYG12LVCA (also 4.5kW heating). This is for my house.
Both units run at around 1.1-1.2kW electrical loading in heat mode. The Fujitsu units requires a 20A supply. The Mitsubishi unit indicates a max running current of 8A.
The Fujitsu unit indicates a running current of 5.5A and a start current of 5.5A.
If I need to provide a 20A supply, that's a substantial job in it's own right. If I only need to provide 8A, that should be fine from a ring main?......
I'd prefer the Fujitsu, but can't see why the high requirement of a 20A supply.
Does the inverter cycle to a point where it might actually need 20A? :confused:
Any insight appreciated.
Regards
Gordon
