Mike45 Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 Sorry Mike, misread your post, most aircons will be fine on 4mm2 (or even 2.5mm2) so if it's that or larger no worries.It looks like 4mm. So I guess its OKSent from my HUAWEI MT1-U06 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bankruatsteve Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 What I can see from the photo is a green cable (ground?) 3 red cables (Live - single core?) and a white cable (Neutral - single core?). So, that's going to more than just the A/C, yah? It doesn't look 'normal' so you might just check what is it those wires are going to? (I think you said still ruffing in.)

SjaakNL2013 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) i love all this technical talks but what i experienced in my first 2 houses was that more then 1 group is lead through the same pipe and that the colors on the wires are there to switch them. last house have the electric system as in Germany. Every room a central box in the ceiling and all wires are there connected...then 1 pipe direct from there to the Siemens board with 1 automatic fuse for every room. Living room and master bed room each 2 groups All switching material from siemens wires, in correct colors buy here local Blue for 0, brown for phase and green/yellow earth all 2.5 mm2 Black for switch wires 1.5 mm2 forget to say... every airco 6 mm2 + 2.5 mm2 grounding with own breaker Edited April 6, 2014 by SjaakNL2013 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't perch myself on the bucket and take a photo at the same time so I took a photo at the CU of wires of the same size. The AC has three wires, white, red, green Sent from my HUAWEI MT1-U06 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCB Assume so, but does Germany have one shared circuit per room for lights and sockets ? yes 1 circuit breaker > 1 group > 1 room with 1 to the room beside. Big advance is that all is easy to follow in case of problems. The 1 room beside make that is 1 group fall off in the room is still a point for light See the attached schedule... sorry is in dutch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
