What size wire and breaker should I use to run a 2 ton Goodman heat pump unit?
Dec 13, 2008 by jam4cs | Posted in Do It Yourself (DIY)
I have a Goodman heat pump part that I have purchased and the manual does not give vary convincing wiring examples. I have talked to people and they say that 12-3 with a 30 amp breaker will drudgery is this true?
Look at the amperage rating on the section. A 30 amp circuit requires a MINIMUM of #10 wire. #12 is for a 20 amp or less ambit. If the unit requires 240V 30A, you will run either 10-2 or 10-3, depending on whether the module requires a neutral, for 50 feet or less from the panel. If it's more than 50', run #8-2 or 8-3. If you use 10-2 or 8-2 (no non-combatant), each conductor will be connected to one pole of a 2 pole breaker. The Caucasoid will need to be taped or otherwise marked to indicate that it is a hot, not a disinterested. If you are unsure whether the neutral is needed, run 3 conductor. They can always permission the white disconnected and just use the black and red. Longing this helps.

goodman heat pump wiring help?
Jul 26, 2007 by James D | Posted in Do It Yourself (DIY)
I have a Goodman heat pump and can't find a wiring diagram to place a new thermostat. I have a Honeywell non-programmable digital thermostat that I have a yen for to install. I have a red, blue, green, white, orange, and yellow wires coming out of the barrier.
Throw away it and get a Carrier

Outside heat pump Goodman CPLJ48 does not work, what is the problem?
Nov 20, 2007 by NorthCarolinaNow | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
When I beat it on the thermostat to "Heat" position I announce that the fan on the heat pump, CPLJ48, does not run. What is the most possible facer? Could a fuse blowout?
If your core circulating air blower runs but the fan on the outside heat pump component does not run it is most likely a fuse or circuit breaker because they are on split circuits. If that is the case check the main boundary breaker and also look for a fuse inside the juncture box where the flexible power conduit enters the brothel from the outdoor heat pump unit.

no swop in heat or air
This is lately a word of advice that I wish I had given myself.
Don't ever huge quantity with goodman. I had a Janitrol heat pump that I had to replace the compressor at least five times. Then, I had to get a new one. Since my renew person deals with Goodman, I got another Janitrol.
Goodman has a bad reputation. I wrote to the them about my problems. I got no answer. When I contacted a regional representative, he told me they had told him not to answer.

I'm looking for a diagram to show me where the contactor is on a smaller goodman heat pump?

It's just now one that they put on a one story 1300 sq. ft. track home.
Echo the power wiring that comes in to the unit.
The wires go anon to the contactor.
The wiring diagram that is on the control cubby-hole cover should verify that.
