2.7.4 IRI Gas Train Kit
The IRI gas train is an optional gas train configuration which is required in some areas for code
compliance or for insurance purposes. The IRI gas train is factory pre-piped and wired. See
Appendix F, Drawing AP-A-843 for details.
2.8 AC ELECTRICAL POWER WIRING
The AERCO Benchmark 2.0LN Electrical Power Wiring Guide, GF-2060LN, must be consulted
prior to connecting any AC power wiring to the unit. External AC power connections are made to
the unit inside the Power Box on the front panel of the unit. Remove the front door of the unit to
access the Power Box mounted directly above the Control Box. Loosen the four Power Box cover
screws and remove cover to access the AC terminal connections inside the Power Box (Figure 2-
7).
NOTE
All electrical conduit and hardware must be installed so that it does not
interfere with the removal of any unit covers, inhibit service/maintenance, or
prevent access between the unit and walls or another unit.

2.8.1 Electrical Power Requirements
The AERCO Benchmark 2.0LN Boiler accepts 120 VAC, single-phase, 60 Hz @ 20A. The Power
Box contains a terminal block as shown in Figure 2-8. In addition, a wiring diagram showing the
required AC power connections is provided on the front cover of the Power Box.
Each Boiler must be connected to a dedicated electrical circuit. NO OTHER DEVICES SHOULD
BE ON THE SAME ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT AS THE BOILER.
A double-pole switch must be installed on the electrical supply line in an easily accessible location
to quickly and safely disconnect electrical service. DO NOT attach the switch to sheet metal
enclosures of the unit.
After placing the boiler in service, the ignition safety shutoff device must be tested. If an external
electrical power source is used, the installed boiler must be electrically bonded to ground in
accordance with the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. In the absence of such
