Wiring
CAUTION
Electrical Interference (Noise) Hazard.
Can cause erratic system operation. 
Keep wiring at least one foot away from large 
inductive loads such as motors, line starters, 
lighting ballasts and large power distribution 
panels. 
Use shielded cable to reduce interference when 
rerouting is not possible. 
IMPORTANT
Erratic temperature readings from a sensor can 
occur as a result of any of the wiring practices 
described below. Avoid these practices to 
assure correct operation. Use shielded cable to 
reduce interference if rerouting of sensor wiring 
is not possible.
— Be sure wires have a cable separate from the 
thermostat cable.
— Do not route temperature sensor wiring with 
building power wiring, next to control contactors 
or near light dimming circuits, electric motors or 
welding equipment.
— Avoid poor wiring connections.
— Avoid intermittent or missing building earth 
ground.
CAUTION
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Can cause electrical shock or equipment 
damage.
Disconnect power supply before connecting 
wiring.
Wiring must comply with applicable codes, ordinances 
and regulations:
1. Wire the C7089 Outdoor Sensor to S1 and S2 
terminals on the thermostat. If leadwire provided 
with C7089 is not long enough (60 in.), run a cable 
to a hole at C7089 location. 
a. Using color-coded, 18-gauge thermostat wire is 
recommended. For example of general wiring 
of C7089, see Fig. 2. 
b. Pigtail wiring can be used.
2. Mount C7089 in its mounting clip.
3. Plug wiring hole using nonhardening caulk or putty.
