VIII. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
A. Controls Options
The standard constant volume (CV) units, as shipped, are operable as stand-alone units, using a standard (mechanical or electronic) 2-stage heat, 2-stage cool thermostat.
With a standard thermostat (programmable is optional), heat- ing and cooling operation is set by space temperature. The standard DDC (direct digital controls) are installed in the con- trol box. The DDC control board diagram is shown in Fig. 11.
Features with Thermostat Control of Unit
·two-stage heating
·two-stage cooling
·control of unit using Y1, Y2, W1, W2, and G thermostat inputs
·control of the indoor fan
·outdoor-air temperature/supply-air temperature monitoring
·control of modulating economizer damper to provide free cooling when outdoor conditions are suitable, using supply- air temperature as a control point
·control of the economizer damper and indoor fan to obtain unoccupied free cooling
·provide power exhaust output to an external power exhaust controller
·support a ®eld test for ®eld checkout
·control of 2 stages of CV power exhaust
·compressor time delay for power up and minimum off and on times
An electronic expansion board may be ®eld-installed to pro- vide the following features:
·control of modulating economizer damper to maintain indoor air quality (IAQ) when outdoor conditions are suitable
NOTE: The IAQ sensor must be set for current output (4 to 20 mA). This requires removing the sensor cover and remov- ing a jumper on the sensor. See Fig. 12.
·provide discrete inputs for fan status, ®lter status, ®eld- applied status, and demand limit
·provide an output for the external alarm light indicator
·provide power exhaust ®re outputs for direct control of power exhaust stages during ®re or smoke control modes
·control of smoke control modes including evacuation, smoke purge, pressurization, and ®re shutdown (non-modulating or modulating power exhaust required)
B. Power Wiring
Units are factory wired for the voltage shown on the unit name- plate. The main terminal block is suitable for use with alu- minum or copper wires.
When installing units, provide a disconnect per NEC (National Electrical Code) of adequate size (MOCP [maxi- mum overcurrent protection] of unit is on the informative plate). All ®eld wiring must comply with NEC and all local codes. Size wire based on MCA (minimum circuit amps) on the unit informative plate. See Fig. 13 for power wiring connections to the unit power terminal block and equipment ground.
The main power terminal block is suitable for use with alu- minum or copper wire. See Fig. 13. Units have circuit break- ers for compressors, fan motors, and control circuit. If required by local codes, provide an additional disconnect, per NEC and
local codes requirements, of adequate size (Table 3). When- ever external electrical sources are used, unit must be elec- trically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in absence of local codes, with NEC, ANSI C1-latest year.
All ®eld wiring must comply with NEC and local code requirements.
C. Field Power Supply
Unit is factory wired for voltage shown on nameplate. See Table 3 for electrical data.
Field wiring can be brought into the unit from bottom (through basepan and roof curb) or through side of unit (corner post next to control box).
A 31¤2-in. NPT knockout for ®eld power wiring and a 3¤4-in. NPT knockout for 24-v control wiring are provided in base- pan. In the side post, there are two 21¤2-in. knockouts for the ®eld power wiring. See Fig. 2 and 3. If control wiring is to be brought in through the side of unit, a 7¤8-in. diameter hole is provided in the condenser side post next to the control box.
If disconnect box is mounted to corner post, be careful not to drill any screws into the condenser coil.
Routing Through Bottom of Unit
If wiring is brought in through bottom of unit, use ®eld- supplied watertight conduit to run power wiring from base- pan out through bottom 31¤2-in. hole to the disconnect box and back into unit to the main control box.
Use strain relief going into control box through 21¤2-in. diam- eter hole provided. After wires are in unit control box, con- nect to power terminal block (see Power Wiring section on this page).
Low-voltage wiring must be run in watertight conduit from the basepan to control box and through 1-in. diameter hole provided in bottom of unit control box. Field-supplied strain relief must be used going into the box. After wiring is in con- trol box, make connections to proper terminals on terminal blocks (see Field Control Wiring section on page 11).
Install conduit connector in unit basepan or side panel open- ings provided. Route power and ground lines through con- nector to connections in unit control box as shown on unit wiring diagram and Fig. 13.
Routing Through Side of Unit
Route power wiring in ®eld-supplied watertight conduit into unit through 21¤2-in. hole. Strain relief (®eld supplied) must be used in hole.
Use ®eld-supplied strain relief going into control box through 21¤2-in. diameter hole provided. After wires are in unit con- trol box, connect to power terminal block (see Power Wiring section on this page).
Bring low-voltage control wiring through factory-drilled 7¤8-in. diameter hole in condenser side post. Use strain relief going into 7¤8-in. diameter hole in bottom of unit control box.
After wiring is in control box, make connection to proper ter- minals on terminal blocks (see Field Control Wiring section on page 11).
WARNING: The unit must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes and NEC ANSI/NFPA 70 (National Fire Protection Association).
