Electrical Connections
All electrical wiring and connections shall be in accordance with the National
Electric Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 (latest edition), or the Canadian Electrical Code
C22.1 (latest edition) and any local codes which may apply. The water heater
shall be electrically grounded.
If a flexible line cord and plug is permitted by local code, then provide a (3) three
wire grounding type receptacle within 6 feet (1.9 m) of the water heater and use
the flexible cord provided. Do not plug the line cord into a receptacle that can
have its power supply interrupted by a switch that is used to turn on and off
lights.
If wiring in conduit is required, remove the flexible line cord from the jacket and
install a 1/2" electr
ical conduit connector and connect 110/120 volt power source.
Connect the hot, neutral, and ground leads of the electrical supply to the
corresponding locations that were connected to the flexible line cord.
The wiring diagram for the 48 gal. (65,000 BTU), and 75 gal. (75,000 BTU
input) models is located in Figure 6.
CAUTION
Turn off or disconnect the electrical power supply to the water before servicing.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors
can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after
servicing.
