Brant Radiant Heaters Patio-Pal PH Series Installation, Operation, Maintenance And Parts Manual Download Page 15

WARNING!

Incorrect or improper wiring may result in shock, injury or death. Field wiring to the heater must be 

connected and grounded in accordance with national, provincial, local codes and to the guidelines 

in this manual. Refer to the most current revisions to the CAN/CSA B149.1 and 2.

2.0 Installation •  Electrical Requirements

NOTICE

Radiant heat may damage the flexible power cord. Always keep the flexible power cord away from the heater. Do not allow 

the power cord to be subjected to radiant heat.

Control systems are initilized by either 120V or optional 24V control voltage. A 120V system can be operated directly 

with 120V to the heater. Heaters with the optional relay can be controlled with 24V. 

Transformers (sold seperately) must be used to supply power of sufficient VA rating for single or multiple connected 

installations. 

Important! 

Proper grounding and polarity are essential. If the system is not properly grounded, it cannot determine 

the presence of a flame and will lockout and shut off. 

For wiring of controls see Figure 2.7 below. It is recommended that the control be installed on the hot side of a fused 

supply line and have a sufficient ampere capacity rating for the heater(s) it will control (see Figures 3.1 & 3.2).
