10 Electrical Information

A. Recommendation for Wire

This appliance requires 110-120 VAC be wired to the junction box either for use of optional accessories (stand- ing pilot ignition) or for proper operation of the appliance (Intellifire ignition). Refer to Figure 10.1 to determine if the appliance uses an Intellifire ignition system or Standing Pilot ignition system.

Open the control access panel to view wiring system and gas valve. If this appliance has a red or black ignitor button (as noted in Figure 10.1) this appliance has a Standing Pilot ignition system. If there is no red or black ignitor button, this appliance has an Intellifire ignition system.

Figure 10.1

Standing Pilot Ignition

Note: This appliance must be electrically wired and grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition or the Canadian Electric Code, CSA C221.1.

This appliance may be used with a wall switch, wall mounted thermostat and/or a remote control.

If using thermostat use one compatible with a millivolt gas valve system.

Follow parameters for locating thermostat (see individual thermostat instructions) to ensure proper operation of appliance.

Use low resistance thermostat wire for wiring from igni- tion system to the wall switch and thermostat.

Keep wire lengths short as possible by removing any excess wire length.

Low voltage and 110 VAC voltage cannot be shared within the same wall box.

C. Intellifire Ignition System Wiring

This appliance requires a 110 VAC supply to the appliance junction box for operation. A wiring diagram is shown in Figure 10.2.

This appliance is equipped with an Intellifire control valve which operates on a 3 volt system.

This appliance is supplied with a battery pack and a 3 volt AC transformer, which requires the installation of the sup- plied junction box. It is highly recommended that the junc- tion box be installed at this time to avoid reconstruction.

The battery pack requires two D cell batteries (not includ- ed). Batteries cannot be placed in the battery pack while using the 3 volt transformer. Batteries shouldn’t be placed into the holder until needed. The higher temperatures will shorten their life.

A 110-120 VAC circuit for this product must be protected with ground-fault circuit-interrupter protection, in compliance with the applicable electrical codes, when it is installed in locations such as in bathrooms or near sinks.

B. Connecting to the Appliance

CAUTION

Battery polarity must be correct or module damage will occur.

Optional Accessories Requirements

Wiring for optional accessories should be done now to avoid reconstruction.

WARNING

Wire 110V to electrical junction box.

Do NOT wire 110V to valve.

Do NOT wire 110V to wall switch.

Incorrect wiring will damage millivolt valves.

Incorrect wiring will override IPI safety lockout and may cause explosion.
