GOLD CGi-4E Gas-Fired Water Boiler — Boiler Manual

6 Field wiring

For your safety, turn off electrical power supply at service entrance panel before making any electrical

connections to avoid possible electric shock hazard. Failure to do so can cause severe personal injury or death.

Wiring must be N.E.C. Class 1.

If original rollout thermal fuse element wire as supplied with boiler must be replaced, use only type 200°C wire or equivalent. If other original wiring as supplied with boiler must be replaced, type 105°C wire or equivalent must be used.

Boiler must be electrically grounded as required by National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70–latest edi- tion.

Thermostat

1.Connect thermostat as shown on wiring diagram on boiler.

2.Install on inside wall away from influences of drafts, hot or cold water pipes, lighting fixtures, television, sunrays, or fireplaces.

3.If thermostat has a heat anticipator, set heat antici- pator in thermostat to match power requirements of equipment connected to it. If connected directly to boiler, set for 0.1 amps plus gas valve current.

See information on wiring diagram as shown in

Figure 31, page 40. For other devices, refer to manu- facturer’s specifications. Wiring diagram on boiler gives setting for control module and gas valve. Also see instructions with thermostat.

Electrical installation must comply with:

1.National Electrical Code and any other national, state, provincial or local codes or regulations.

2.In Canada, CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code

Part 1, and any local codes.

Wiring connections

Boiler is shipped with controls completely wired.

Junction Box (furnished)

1.Connect 120 VAC power wiring as shown in

Figure 27.

2.Fused disconnect or service switch (15 amp. recom- mended) may be mounted on this box. For those installations with local codes which prohibit installa- tion of fused disconnect or service switch on boiler, install a 2 x 4 cover plate on the boiler junction box and mount the service switch remotely as required by the code.

The CGi-4E control module is polarity-sensitive. The hot and neutral wires must be connected to the correct leads. A flashing POWER light usually indicates reversed polarity of 120 VAC lead wires.
