    Hello,

    I want air conditioning in one bedroom and one room. There will be two units and two vents. I wanted to distribute the electrical installation for these devices. Namely, from the board to each outdoor unit 3x2.5 mm2 and from the outdoor unit to the controller on the wall 4x1 or 4x1.5 mm2. Is that enough for me? I do not know exactly which air-conditioning model I will choose, it will probably be something from LG. Do I need to pull any more wire from the outdoor unit to the room / bedroom supply?

    Just in case, give a twisted pair to the server room and / or a cable to the satellite
    Useful for later control from a phone / smart home

    Cable - maybe 4x4mm / 2 or 4x6mm / 2?
    But seriously, you have to start with the most important thing - what power the device should be installed or what devices and with what power should be installed? What electrical system layout is in the house? Is it a TN, TN-S, TN-C, TN-CS, TT or IT electrical grid system?

    Do you like to punch yourself in a way to show off?
    4x6mm2 to power the air-conditioning in the room,
    Recalculate the demand for such a room.

    and who will forbid the rich to turn on the air conditioning with the windows open.

    You make posts yourself - I asked specifically what power the device should be and what type of network should the air conditioning be connected to? The bedroom can be from the south, it has some surface, the thickness of the walls and the number of people in the room, including the RTV equipment in the room, are important. All this produces heat and, based on the adopted standards, the air-conditioning power is determined, and the electrical network is designed based on the air-conditioning power. Everything is related to the power demand and protection systems.

    3 * 2.5mm? is enough for splits up to 18,000 BTU. In most models, the power supply is connected to the indoor unit, so it is best to install a "schuko" socket in the place of installation of the air conditioning. "... will be dragged along with the tubes.

    Speaks well

    Even a tent with an area of 30m2 in the desert can be supplied with 2.5mm2 in order to obtain the optimal air temperature

    Thanks for showing interest.

    The units are to have an area of one 22m2 (bedroom with slants) and the other is about 30m2 (dining room with kitchen, sunny south direction) with the dining room and kitchen connected with the living room and communication, creating an open area of about 60m2. I would like to pull the cables together with the pipes now, because I would like the buildings split. That's why I ask what cable for the power supply and where is it better to pull the cable inside or outside, and which cable for the controller on the wall. Should the cable to the controller be pulled from the split or the outdoor unit? In addition, I will put a torsion, as a colleague wrote above, wrote to the alarm.

    See the instructions for some air conditioning. Will be described

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around selecting appropriate cable sizes for LG air conditioning units in a residential setting. The user plans to install two units, one in a 22m² bedroom and another in a 30m² dining room with kitchen, both requiring careful electrical installation. Responses emphasize the importance of determining the power requirements of the air conditioning units, suggesting cable sizes such as 3x2.5 mm² for power supply to outdoor units and 4x1 or 4x1.5 mm² for connections to wall controllers. Recommendations also include considering the type of electrical system in the house and the total power demand based on room size and usage. The discussion highlights the need for proper cable routing and the potential inclusion of additional cables for smart home integration.
