182 on a Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Air-Conditioning Europe Hydrolution: Load monitor active: Measured power consumption for at least one phase exceeds the fuse size specified in the menu

Short answer

On a Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Air-Conditioning Europe heat pump, 182 means: Load monitor active: Measured power consumption for at least one phase exceeds the fuse size specified in the menu. The heat pump keeps running with some functions stopped. An engineer is needed to fix the cause.

What it means

The manual says: Load monitor active: Measured power consumption for at least one phase exceeds the fuse size specified in the menu.

Part involved: Load monitor active.

When it shows: Measured power consumption for at least one phase exceeds the fuse size specified in the menu.

Likely causes:

  • Phase loading; a larger main fuse may be needed.

Is it safe?

Does the heat pump stop?Partly
SeverityFault — clears by itself when the condition goes
Engineer needed?Yes

The heat pump keeps running with some functions stopped.

Resetting itself: yes.

Manual reset: no.

What you can check

  • Note the alarm number/text shown on the display. Check the consumer-unit breakers/isolators for the indoor and outdoor units are on. Heavy simultaneous electrical loads (e.g. oven, shower, EV charger) can trigger load/voltage alarms - note what was running. This is an information message; it resets automatically when the cause is removed.

What the engineer will check

  • Per manual 'May be due to': Phase loading; a larger main fuse may be needed. Check sensor wiring/resistance, settings, flow (particle filter, pump) and supply as applicable.

Who to ask for: Heat pump / refrigeration engineer (manufacturer-trained).

Certification: F-gas certification for refrigerant-circuit work; electrical competence (Part P/18th Edition) for PCB/wiring.
