INSTALLATION - ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
1. Disconnect power supply before making wiring connections 
to prevent electrical shock and equipment damage.
2.  All appliances must be wired strictly in accordance with 
 wiring diagram furnished with the appliance. Any wiring 
different from the wiring diagram could result in a hazard 
 to persons and property.
3.  Any original factory wiring that requires replacement must 
be replaced with wiring material having a temperature 
rating of at least 105°C.
4. Ensure that the supply voltage to the appliance, as 
indicated on the serial plate, is not 5% greater than rated 
voltage.
5. When the unit on/off toggle switch is in the “OFF” position, 
supply power remains energized at the rear of the switch.  
When a factory or field installed motor starting device 
such as a relay or contactor are present, supply power 
terminals of these components may remain energized 
even in the “OFF” position. When providing service on or 
near these terminals, de-energize building supply power 
to the unit.
CAUTION
Ensure that the supply voltage to the appliance, as indicated 
on the serial plate, is not 5% less than the rated voltage.
1. Installation of wiring must conform with local building codes, 
or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electric 
Code ANSI/NFPA 70 - Latest Edition. Unit must be electri cally 
grounded in conformance to this code. In Canada, wiring 
must comply with CSA C22.1, Part 1, Electrical Code.
2. Two copies of the unit wiring diagram are provided with each 
unit. One is located in the side access control compartment 
and the other is supplied in the literature packet. Refer to this 
diagram for all wiring connections.
3. Make sure all multi-voltage components (motors, transform-
ers, etc.) are wired in accordance with the power supply 
voltage.
4. The power supply to the unit must be protected with a fused 
or circuit breaker switch.
5. The power supply must be within 5 percent of the voltage 
rating and each phase must be balanced within 2 percent of 
each other. If not, advise the utility company.
6. External electrical service connections that must be installed 
include:
  a. Supply power connection (115, 208, 230, 460, or 575 volts).
  b. Connection of thermostats, or any other accessory control 
devices that may be supplied (24 volts). 
NOTE: All units with supply voltage 208V and greater must use 
a field installed step-down transformer, available as a separate 
accessory. Refer to Table 15.1 for additional information on the 
required transformer.
7. Refer to Figures 18.1 and 18.2 for the side access control 
compartment location. 
8.  All supply power electrical connections are made in the side 
access control compartment of the unit. The low voltage 
(thermostat and accessory control devices) can be wired to 
the terminals in the side access control compartment. Refer 
to the wiring diagram for the terminal location of all low 
voltage wiring.

9. Separated combustion models include a factory installed on/
off toggle switch. The function of this switch is to disconnect 
power to the unit for maintenance or to shut the unit off in 
warm weather. Toggle switch is rated at 15amps at 125 volts 
or up to 3/4 HP at 125 volts.
