Connecting the Power Wires

WARNING: All electrical components must meet applicable national and local electrical codes including installation by qualified personnel. These codes may require a means in the fixed wiring of disconnecting AC power having a contact separation of at least 0.120" (3mm) in the line and neutral poles. The wire used for connection to the controller must have insulation rated at 105°C minimum. Do not connect the controller to one phase of a

3-phase power source. Ensure the AC power source is OFF prior to connecting to the controller.

1.Ensure the power is discon- nected at the source.

2.Route the AC power and equipment ground wires through electrical conduit to the controller.

3.Remove the wiring access panel located below the transformer.

4.Using a small screwdriver, secure wires as follows: hot to L, neutral to N, and equipment ground to .

5.Reinstall the cover plate.

6.Apply power to controller.

Connecting an Earth Ground Source

!Caution: Warranty may be void if the controller is not properly grounded to an earth ground device.

1.Install a copper-clad ground device; i.e., 8’ (2,5m) ground rod into well moistened soil. The top of the rod buied at least 12” (30,5cm) below grade.

2.Using a Cad-weldTM(or equivalent) attachment method, connect a 6 AWG (10mm2) solid copper wire to the ground device and route to the controller in the most direct path. (Wire bends should be minimal and not be less than 8” (20,3cm) in radius).

3.Route ground wire through cabinet base using 1/4” (6mm) access hole provided.
