What it means

The manual says: Phase loss or neutral wire and live wire are connected reversely (only for three phase unit).

Likely causes:

  • Power supply cables not secure (phase loss).
  • neutral and live connected reversely.

Is it safe?

Switch the heat pump off at its isolator and call an engineer.
