With a trinary switch, when the pressures are low enough, the fan will shut off, such as when moving down the highway. You will have sufficient air flow over the condenser at that time so fans won't be needed.

Dammit - thats why you get paid the big bucks. Forgot to factor in actually how AC works .... juts been thinking of wiring.
Funny though -- this is literally the manual from the AC company - both fan and compessor wired together.
