VI. Electrical

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 over-current device.

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 front door. 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.

A.General. Install wiring and electrically ground boiler in accordance with authority having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such requirements, follow the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70, and/or CSA C22.1 Electrical Code.

B.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. Install the service switch in the line voltage “Hot” leg of the power supply. Locate the

service switch such that the boiler can be shut-off without exposing personnel to danger in the event of an emergency. Connect the main power supply and ground to the three (3) boiler wires (black, white and green) located in the junction box at the inside top of the boiler jacket. If a low water cutoff is to be used, connect the low water cutoff so that all 120V power to boiler is interrupted if the low water cutoff’s switch opens.

C.Refer to Figures 28 and 29 for details on the internal boiler wiring.

NOTICE

This boiler is equipped with a high water temperature limit located inside the internal wiring of the boiler. This limit provides boiler shutdown in the event the boiler water temperature exceeds the set point of the limit control. Certain Local Codes require an additional water temperature limit. In addition, certain types of systems may operate at temperatures below the minimum set point of the limit contained in the boiler.

If this occurs, install an additional water temperature limit (Honeywell L4006 Aquastat) located in the system piping as shown in the Water Piping and Trim Section of this manual. Wire as indicated in the Electrical Section of this manual.

NOTICE

All wire, wire nuts, controls etc. are installer supplied unless otherwise noted.
