    Old window unit
    We have a Friedrich window unit. It has a 3 prong plug and we have it in a 20 amp socket. The breaker is a 60 amp and the wiring is 220 12/3. We aren't getting power to the unit. What are we doing wrong here?? :eek:

    Hmmm friedrich went out of business, I'm guessing 25 years ago?


    If the outlet is OK I'd suspect the cord , really need a meter to see if the power gets to the unit. Can't see it from here, 220v needs to be handled by people who know, I'm recommending a tech get an eyeball on it.


    Also the unit is beyond its expected life span so a replacement is soon to come
