What it means
The manual says: AC input over current protection alarm.
Part involved: compressor inverter drive board.
Likely causes:
- Single-phase units only. Restart; check for electrical leakage; replace driver board if persistent.
Is it safe?
| Does the heat pump stop? | Yes |
|---|---|
| Engineer needed? | Yes |
The heat pump stops until the fault clears or is reset.
Resetting itself: unknown.
What you can check
- Note the code shown on the controller and the model number on the unit's rating label before contacting your installer.
- Check that the heat pump's isolator and consumer-unit breaker are on; do not open any casing.
What the engineer will check
- Check supply voltage and phase at the unit terminals.
- Check compressor U/V/W connections and compressor winding resistance.
- Check drive board heatsink cooling and fan.
- Replace the inverter/driver board if faults persist.
Who to ask for: Heat pump engineer.
Certification: Heat pump installer competence; F-gas and flammable-refrigerant (R32/R290) handling competence for any refrigerant-circuit work.
