CAUTION
!
Connect Control Wiring
Route 24v control wires through control wiring grommet and
connect leads to control wiring. See Thermostat Installation
Instructions for wiring specific unit combinations. (See Fig. 12.)
Use No. 18 AWG color--coded, insulated (35
°
C minimum) wire.
If thermostat is located more than 100 ft. from unit, as measured
along the control voltage wires, use No. 16 AWG color--coded
wire to avoid excessive voltage drop.
All wiring must be NEC Class 1 and must be separated from
incoming power leads.
Use furnace transformer, fan coil transformer, or accessory
transformer for control power, 24v/40va minimum.
NOTE
:
Use of available 24v accessories may exceed the
minimum 40va power requirement. Determine total transformer
loading and increase the transformer capacity or split the load
with an accessory transformer as required.
Final Wiring Check
IMPORTANT
: Check factory wiring and field wire connections
to ensure terminations are secured properly. Check wire routing
to ensure wires are not in contact with tubing, sheet metal, etc.
