Installation - Electrical
Installer-Supplied Components
Customer wiring interface connections are shown in the electrical schematics and 
connection diagrams that are shipped with the unit. The installer must provide the 
following components if not ordered with the unit:
Power supply wiring (in conduit) for all field-wired connections.
All control (interconnecting) wiring (in conduit) for field supplied devices.
Fused-disconnect switches or circuit breakers.
Power factor correction capacitors. (optional)
Power Supply Wiring
All power supply wiring must be sized and selected accordingly by the project 
engineer in accordance with NEC Table 310-16.
 WARNING
Hazardous Voltage w/Capacitors!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects before 
servicing. Follow proper lockout/tagout procedures to ensure the power 
cannot be inadvertently energized. For variable frequency drives or other 
energy storing components provided by Trane or others, refer to the 
appropriate manufacturer’s literature for allowable waiting periods for 
discharge of capacitors. Verify with an appropriate voltmeter that all 
capacitors have discharged. Failure to disconnect power and discharge 
capacitors before servicing could result in death or serious injury.
Note: For additional information regarding the safe discharge of 
capacitors, see PROD-SVB06A-EN or PROD-SVB06A-FR 
All wiring must comply with local codes and the National Electrical Code. The 
installing (or electrical) contractor must provide and install the system interconnecting 
wiring, as well as the power supply wiring. It must be properly sized and equipped 
with the appropriate fused disconnect switches.
The type and installation location(s) of the fused disconnects must comply with all 
applicable codes.
CAUTION
Use Copper Conductors Only! 
Unit terminals are not designed to accept other types of conductors. 
Failure to use copper conductors may result in equipment damage. 
Cut holes into the sides of the control panel for the appropriately-sized power wiring 
conduits. The wiring is passed through these conduits and connected to the terminal 
blocks, optional unit-mounted disconnects, or HACR type breakers. Refer to 
To provide proper phasing of 3-phase input, make connections as shown in field 
wiring diagrams and as stated on the WARNING label in the starter panel. For 
additional information on proper phasing, refer to “Unit Voltage Phasing.” Proper 
equipment ground must be provided to each ground connection in the panel (one for 
each customer-supplied conductor per phase).
