Abstract
A wire guide assembly for use in an air conditioning system having a heat exchange unit. A wire guide assembly acts to provide a secure cavity through which wires emanating from the control area and flowing to a separately located electrical component may pass. The wire guide assembly serves to protect the wires from engagement with either a rotating fan or a heat exchanger. The wire guide assembly includes a control area member having a T-shaped opening, a retainer and a cover slidably engaged to the retainer.
