install unit in system where voltage may fluctuate above or below
permissible limits.

NOTE:

Use copper wire only between disconnect switch and

unit.

NOTE:

Install branch circuit disconnect of adequate size per

NEC to handle unit starting current. Locate disconnect within sight
from and readily accessible from unit, per Section 440-14 of NEC.

ROUTE GROUND AND POWER WIRES

Remove access panel to gain access to unit wiring. Extend wires
from disconnect through power wiring hole provided and into unit
control box.

The unit cabinet must have an uninterrupted or unbroken
ground to minimize personal injury if an electrical fault
should occur. The ground may consist of electrical wire or
metal conduit when installed in accordance with existing
electrical codes. Failure to follow this warning can result in an
electric shock, fire, or death.

CONNECT GROUND AND POWER WIRES

Connect ground wire to ground connection in control box for
safety. Connect power wiring to contactor as shown in Fig. 9.
