Answer:

The amperage draw of the condensing unit will be low.

Step-by-step explanation:

A condensing unit is made up of a compressor and condenser, while an evaporating unit is made up of an evaporator coil.

A split AC system is a type of air conditioner system that has a condensing unit which is placed separately from the evaporative coil unit. Then the two units are connected to each other via a copper tube containing refrigerants.

The liquid line connects the condenser to the evaporator, and if this liquid line is restricted, the amp consumed by the condensing unit will be low.
