Vermont Casting 360DVSR EB-1 Electrical Junction Box Connection, Alternate Switch Location

360 DVS Series Direct Vent Fireplaces

The gas control is equipped with a captured-screw type pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to pro- vide a 1/8” test point upstream of the control.

When using copper or flex connector, use only ap- proved fittings. Always provide a union when using black iron pipe so that the gas line can be easily discon- nected for burner or fan servicing. Refer to the gas specification for pressure details and ratings.

Isolate or disconnect this or any other gas appliance control from the gas line when pressure testing.

DO NOT subject the fireplace valve to test pressures exceeding 1/2 psi.

EB-1 Electrical Junction Box Connection

The fireplace, when installed, must be electrically connected and grounded in ac- cordance with local codes; in the absence of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code.

For USA installations, follow the local codes and National Electrical Code ANSI/ NFPA No. 70.

It is strongly suggested the wiring of the EB-1 Electrical Junction Box be carried out by a licensed electrician.

Ensure power to the supply line has been disconnected before commencing with this procedure.

The EB-1 electrical junction box has been supplied standard on this model to allow for easy connection of the optional fan kits. (Fig. 6)

To connect the EB-1 box to the house electrical supply follow the steps below.

1.Remove the front cover of the EB-1 box.

2.Remove the plug socket assembly from the EB-1 box.

3.Feed the supply line in from the out through the elec- trical knockout.

4.Connect the ground wire of the supply line to the green screw of the socket assembly.

5.Connect the white wire of the power line to the chrome screw of the socket assembly.

6.Connect the black wire of the power supply line to the brass screw (polarized) of the socket assembly.

7.Refit the socket assembly back into the electrical box and replace the cover plate.

8.The EB-1 electrical junction box is now ready to sup- ply power to the FK12 or FK24 fan kit, if used.
