Power Connection Kits For Premium Series (5500)
265 or 277 Volt Installations
National Electrical Code (Article 440 section G) requires permanent connection for installation on circuit in excess of 250 volts.
Permanent Connection Kits are available for 265 volt installations. The regular kit consists of a
For those installations that require a method of direct connection using flexible or rigid conduit, the RAK4002B junction box (provided with chassis) can be used and the field supplied conduit attached to it. The universal cord set will be cut off and connections made inside the junction box.
See page 44 for total connected load for 5500 series units.
Electrical Wiring Information - 2500/3500/5500 Series
All Zoneline units are single phase 60 hertz units.
For all installations feeder,
Maximum connected load in amperes, including demands for the electric heater and the fan motor, are shown on page 44. Branch circuit ampacity and electrical protective device sizing are shown on page 42 for 230/208 volt units and on this page for 265 volt units. (Although presented with Premium 5500 Series this information also is valid for Deluxe Series 2500 and 3500 Series units.)
More than one unit per branch circuit is not recommended; however, when in doubt, consult the National Electrical Code. All wiring, including installation of receptacle, must conform to local electrical regulations and codes.
Replacement of Existing Chassis
230/208 Volt and 265 Volt Units
There have been changes to NEC and improvements and modifications to the Zoneline chassis and
Line Cord Connected Units
The plug configuration of new line cord connected units complies with the current NEC standards. Older installations may have wall receptacles that conformed to NEC standards at the time the building was constructed and may not match the configuration of the plug on the new line cord. Recommended solution is to change the wall receptacle to conform to current standard plug configuration. See chart on page 42 for current receptacle configuration.
