What it means
The manual says: Excessively low or excessively high voltage for the inverter.
Is it safe?
| Does the heat pump stop? | Yes |
|---|---|
| Severity | Fault — needs a manual reset once the cause is fixed |
| Engineer needed? | Yes |
The heat pump stops until the fault clears or is reset.
No need to switch off — call an engineer if it comes back.
Resetting itself: unknown.
Manual reset: Power OFF/ON to remove alarms in Yutaki M and system controller (TCGB0090 p.141 for F16/F17).
What you can check
- Read and note the alarm code and any retry code (e.g. P70) shown on the unit controller.
- Check the heat pump supply breaker/isolator at the consumer unit is ON.
- Restart once via the unit controller (or switch off/on at the isolator) - the manual states the unit must be stopped to release most alarms; if the code returns, call an engineer.
What the engineer will check
- Follow SMGB0146 section 6.7 troubleshooting flowchart for alarm 06.
- Measure supply voltage and phase sequence/imbalance at the terminal board.
- Check supply cable size and connections per manual.
Who to ask for: Electrician / heat pump service engineer.
Certification: BS 7671 competent electrician for supply issues.
