initial operation. Operation of a water heater without a completely filled tank may result in serious damage to the appliance and heating element burn out.
5.The water heater should be connected with a separate grounded branch circuit with over current protection and disconnect switch. The water heater should be grounded in accordance with national and local codes. A ground terminal is provided for ground connection only.
6.Provide the appliance with proper overload protection in the branch circuit. It is suggested that the electrician size the branch circuit at 125 percent of the heater ampere rating and further increase wire size as necessary to compensate for voltage drop in long runs. Branch circuit voltage drop should not exceed 3% at the heater.
7.Voltage applied to the heater should not vary more than +5% to
8.A wiring diagram is provided with the water heater for the electricians use.
