Electrical Requirements
NOTE:   
All fi eld wiring must comply with 
NEC and local codes. It is the 
responsibility of the installer to 
insure that the electrical codes are 
met.
Wire Size 
Use ONLY wiring size recommended 
for single outlet branch circuit.
Fuse/Circuit Use ONLY  type and size fuse or 
HACR circuit breaker 
Breaker 
Indicated on unit's rating plate (See 
sample on page 6).
 
Proper current protection to the unit 
is the responsibility of the owner. 
Grounding 
Unit MUST be grounded from branch 
circuit to unit, or through separate 
ground wire provided on permanently 
connected units. Be sure that branch 
circuit or general purpose outlet is 
grounded.
Wire Sizing  Use recommended wire size given in 
the tables below and install a single 
branch circuit.  All wiring must comply 
with local and national codes.  NOTE: 
Use copper conductors only.
Electrical Supply
WARNING:  Electrical shock hazard.
Turn OFF electric power at fuse box or service panel 
before making any electrical connections and ensure a 
proper ground connection is made before connecting line 
voltage.
All electrical connections and wiring MUST be installed by 
a qualifi ed electrician and conform to the National Electrical 
Code and all local codes which have jurisdiction.
Failure to do so can result in property damage, personal 
injury and/or death.
Supply Circuit
The system cannot be expected to operate correctly unless 
the system is properly connected (wired) to an adequately 
sized single branch circuit. Check the installation manual 
and/or technical data for your particular unit and/or strip
heaters to determine if the circuit is adequately sized.
Supply Voltage
To insure proper operation, supply voltage to the system 
should be within fi ve (5) percent (plus or minus) of listed 
rating plate voltage. 
Control (Low) Voltage
To  insure  proper  system  operation,  the  transformer 
secondary output must be maintained at a nominal 24 volts. 
The control (low) voltage transformer is equipped with
multiple primary voltage taps. Connecting the primary, 
(supply) wire to the tap (i.e., 208 and 240 volts) that most 
closely matches the MEASURED supply voltage will insure 
proper transformer secondary output is maintained.
Supply Voltage
Supply voltage to the unit should be a nominal 208/230 volts. 
It must be between 197 volts and 253 volts. Supply voltage 
to the unit should be checked WITH THE UNIT IN
OPERATION. Voltage readings outside the specifi ed range 
can be expected to cause operating problems. Their cause 
MUST be investigated and corrected.
Electrical Ground
GROUNDING OF THE ELECTRICAL SUPPLY TO ALL 
UNITS IS REQUIRED
 for safety reasons.
