10 - ELECTRICAL WIRING

!WARNING

Electrical shock hazard. Turn OFF electrical power supply at service panel before making electrical connections. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury.

VENT DAMPER WIRING

Boiler is equipped with factory wired harness with 4 pin molex plug, that plugs into 4 pin molex receptacle inside vent damper operator.

Vent damper must be connected for boiler to operate.

NOTICE

Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.

Electrically bond boiler to ground in accordance with requirements of authority having jurisdiction. Refer to:

•USA- National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.

•Canada - Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, CSA C22.1: Safety Standard for Electrical Installations.

ELECTRIC POWER SUPPLY

Run separate 120 volt circuit from separate over current protective device in electrical service entrance panel. This should be a 15 ampere circuit. Locate shut-off switch at boiler. It must be turned off during any maintenance. Connect 120 volt power supply to control leads L1 (HOT) and L2.

Run a 14 gauge or heavier copper wire from boiler to grounded connection in service panel or properly driven and electrically grounded ground rod.

THERMOSTAT INSTALLATION

1.Thermostat should be installed on an inside wall about four feet above the floor.

2.NEVER install thermostat on outside wall.

3.Do not install a thermostat where it will be affected by drafts, hot or cold pipes, sunlight, lighting fixtures, televisions, a fireplace, or a chimney.

4.Check thermostat operation by raising and lowering thermostat setting as required to start and stop the burners.

5.Instructions for the final adjustment of the thermostat are packaged with the thermostat (adjusting heating anticipator, calibration, etc.)

Set heat anticipator at .2 amps. 24 volt thermostat connects to aquastat terminals T and TV.

If any of the original wire as supplied with this appliance must be replaced,

It must be replaced with type 105°C thermoplastic wire or its equivalent.
