DANGER: Electrical shock hazard. Turn OFF electric power at the fuse box or service panel before making any electrical connections and ensure a proper ground connection is made before connecting line voltage. Failure to do so can result in property damage, personal injury and/or death.

A. Grounding

CAUTION: The unit must be electrically wired and grounded in accordance with all state and local codes, national electric code, and NFPA 70. Unit and controls will NOT operate unless properly grounded. A ground lug is provided for ground connection. Use only approved copper wire and connectors from unit to service panel.

B. Power Supply

NOTE: Line voltage circuit is completely factory wired. Make all line voltage connections inside circuit breaker junction box. The circuit breakers or fuses used for branch circuit protection should be UL recognized. If circuit breakers are used, the circuit breaker for the compressor circuit must have a UL HACR rating. If fuses are used, the fuse for the compressor circuit MUST be time delay type.

CAUTION: Units are dual voltage rated 208-230/1/60. The 24V control transformer must be connected for either 208V or 240V power source for proper operation. Line voltage must not exceed 253V or go below 197V. The transformer connection must be changed for 208V operation.

Depending on auxiliary heater size, unit must be supplied with 2 or 3 separate 208V or 240V circuits from structure’s fuse box or service panel. Each circuit is internally connected to a circuit breaker located in the unit control box located at the front center of the unit. Refer to Table 4 and Table 5 for required circuits and recommended wire size for each circuit.

1If wire is applied at ambient greater than 30°C (86°F), consult Table 310-16 of the NEC (ANSI/NFPA 70). The ampacity of nonmetalic-sheathed cable (NM), trade name ROMEX, shall be that of 60°C (140°F) conductors, per the NEC (ANSI/NFPA 70) Article 336-30. If other than uncoated (non- plated), 60°C or 75°C (140°F or 167°F) insulation, copper wire (solid wire for 10 AWG and smaller, stranded wire for larger than 10 AWG) is used, consult applicable tables of the NEC (ANSI/NFPA 70).
