anticipator to 0.4 amps. See Figure 11.
D. Wire boiler. Boiler is rated for 120 VAC, 60 hertz,
less than 12 amperes. A separate electrical circuit must
be run from the main electrical service with an over-
current device/disconnect in the circuit. A service
switch is recommended and may be required by some
local jurisdictions. Connect circuit to black and white
wires and green ground screw. See Figure 11.

NOTICE
PVCG boilers built for installation at altitudes greater than 2,000 feet above sea level have been specially
oriced to reduce gas input rate. See rating label for gas orice size. High altitude boiler models are
identiable by the second digit in the model number sufx on the rating label:
PVCG_O_1-_2_: Less than 2000 ft. elevation
PVCG_O_1-_5_: 2000 to 5000 ft. elevation
DANGER
Positively assure all electrical connections are unpowered before attempting installation or service of
electrical components or connections of the boiler or building. Lock out all electrical boxes with padlock
once power is turned off.
WARNING
Failure to properly wire electrical connections to the boiler may result in serious physical harm.
Electrical power may be from more than one source. Make sure all power is off before attempting any
electrical work.
Each boiler must be protected with a properly sized fused disconnect.
Never jump out or make inoperative any safety or operating controls.
The wiring diagrams contained in this manual are for reference purposes only. Each boiler is shipped
with a wiring diagram attached to the left side of the boiler. Refer to this diagram and the wiring diagram
of any controls used with the boiler. Read, understand and follow all wiring instructions supplied with
the controls.
