Wiring An Outdoor AC Unit
Electric Pro Academy - Real skills to make real money.
Synopsis:
Utility equipment may seem like a daunting DIY task, but with the exception of larger wire gauge, wiring an outdoor AC unit is little different than wiring a light switch. Mounting the components will differ from case-to-case, but in this video Joel will demonstrate how to mount an AC disconnect to brick, run THHN wire through PVC liquid-tight conduit, and make all the necessary electrical connections. Along the way he’ll make recommendations and point out professional details employed daily by Jefferson Electric masters, journeymen, & apprentices that give lifelong certainty to the integrity of the job.
