Abstract

An air conditioner capable of improving its assembling efficiency and reducing material costs. The air conditioner reduces the effects of the fluctuation in commercial line voltage (12) on the supply voltage to a compressor (11), while reducing the vibrations of its outdoor unit (2). The outdoor unit (2) is provided with a voltage correction circuit (14) that maintains the output voltage to the compressor (11) constant (optimal) regardless of the changes in voltage on commercial power supply line (12).
