Wiring Instructions

Risk of Electrical

Shock. Improper electrical grounding can result in electrical shock. The wiring should be done by a qualified electrician

A qualified electrician needs to knows the following before wiring:

1.The amperage rating of the electrical box should be adequate. Refer to the Specification Chart, in the parts manual, for this information.

2.The supply line should have the same electrical characteristics (voltage, cycle, phase) as the motor. Refer to the motor nameplate, on side of motor, for this information.

NOTE: The wiring must be the same as the motor nameplate voltage plus or minus 10%. Refer to local codes for recommended wire sizes, correct wire size, and maximum wire run; undersize wire causes high amp draw and overheating to the motor.

Risk of Electrical

Shock. Electrical

wiring must be located away from hot surfaces such as manifold assembly, compressor outlet tubes, heads, or cylinders.
