Voltage is very low in my area and cannot power my 1.5 hisense inverter AC. The compressor turn on and off every 5 mins on intervals. Kindly advise me of what watt of stablizer I need to step up and power my AC.

Please don't even turn your Ac unit on with the low voltage. Else you'll ruin your outdoor unit.

You need a 5000vac wall mount stabilizer. I make use of binatone.

Thank you boss

I got this. I don't know if there is a difference between Automatic voltage regulator and stablizer. My current still drops at the start of my compressor making it turn on and off every 5mins. My AC is 1.5 hisense inverter. The device is rated 5000va

This is a stabilizer.

Can you check your input and output voltage?

You should see the input and output voltage on the LCD

yes, the input voltage is 181. And the output is 223. The AC will startup normally with blowing Fan while retaining the input and output. Then after like 5-8mins, the compressor picks up, then the input voltage will start dropping as the compressor runs.

From that 181, it will drop to 100 and 93. Then the stablizer trips on and off. This happens with 2 - 5mins

Below picture is when the compressor starts

Kukuma pack commot from there na.
I hope its not Ikotun Sha

the whole matter just tire. Whether from the wiring of the house. I no just know. Coz the power fluctuation doesn't affect my neighbours.

Hello,
The problem is not the stabilizer but the power supply.

Your neighbour maybe using a different phase of supply.

Find out from him and call an electrician to move you from your present phase to your neighbour's. In the mean time, pls stope using the AC to avoid damaging it.

Maybe you should try powering it with a generator, make you dey sure na NEPA supply issue. You never know if the problem is from the AC.

Just look for a qualified electrician, simple!
