SYSTEM WIRING
Each NOsparc arc suppressor has two male quick connect
terminals which must mate with two properly crimped
female quick connect terminals.
In order to provide effective arc suppression, the two wires
between NOsparc arc suppressor and the relay, contactor,
or snap action switch contact terminals should be as short as
possible.
One foot or less of wire length is ideal; lengths over 3 feet
are not recommended. If longer cable lengths are needed,
then the wire gauge must be increased according to the
following recommendation based on the length of wire
between NOsparc arc suppressor terminals and the contact
terminals:
#14AWG (minimum) for less than 24in of wire
#12AWG (minimum) for 24in to 36in of wire
Above: Proper NOsparc wiring across CONTACT.
