EQUIPMENT DAMAGE

The terminal block is split into INPUT and OUTPUT sections. Damage may occur if the unit is wired incorrectly.

Do not remove or loosen factory installed wiring.

Failure to follow these instructions can damage the unit and/or damage other equipment.

When making the AC input and AC output connections, observe the correct color code for the appropriate AC wire, as described in Table 2 on page 11.

To make the AC input connections:

1.Locate the wiring compartment cover panel and remove the four screws.

2.Remove the cover panel from the unit to access the wiring compartment.

3.Remove one of the AC knockouts from the front or side of the unit. Do not leave the knockout inside the wiring compartment.

4.Install a strain-relief clamp in the AC knockout.

5.Run the AC wiring through the strain-relief clamp.

6.Strip approximately 2 inches (50 mm) off the jacket from the AC cable and separate the wires.

7.Using a 1/4" blade slot screwdriver, loosen the terminal screws on the terminals. Do not remove the screws.
