Notice Label
NOTE: Unit powered convenience outlets are not available as fac-
tory installed options for single phase (-3 voltage code models).
Installing Weatherproof Cover
A weatherproof while-in-use cover for the factory-installed
convenience outlets is now required by UL standards. This
cover cannot be factory-mounted due its depth; it must be in-
stalled at unit installation. For shipment, the convenience outlet
is covered with a blank cover plate.
On units with electro-mechanical controls the weatherproof
cover kit is shipped in the unit’s control box. The kit includes
the hinged cover, a backing plate, and gasket. On units with a
factory installed direct digital controller (SystemVu™ or RTU
Open) the weatherproof cover kit is secured to the basepan un-
derneath the control box (see Fig. 31).

1. Remove the blank cover plate at the convenience outlet;
discard the blank cover.
2. Loosen the two screws at the GFCI duplex outlet, until
approximately
1/2
in. (13 mm) under screw heads is
exposed. Press the gasket over the screw heads.
3. Slip the backing plate over the screw heads at the keyhole
slots and align with the gasket; tighten the two screws
until snug (do not over-tighten).
4. Mount the weatherproof cover to the backing plate as
shown in Fig. 32.
5. Remove two slot fillers in the bottom of the cover to per-
mit service tool cords to exit the cover.
6. Check for full closing and latching.

Non-Powered Convenience Outlet
This type requires the field installation of a general-purpose
125-v 15A circuit powered from a source elsewhere in the
building. Observe national and local codes when selecting wire
size, fuse or breaker requirements, and disconnect switch size
and location. Route 125v power supply conductors into the
bottom of the utility box containing the duplex receptacle.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal inju-
ry or death.
Using unit-mounted convenience outlets: Units with unit-
mounted convenience outlet circuits will often require that
two disconnects be opened to de-energize all power to the
unit. Treat all units as electrically energized until the conve-
nience outlet power is also checked and de-energization is
confirmed. Observe National Electrical Code Article 210,
Branch Circuits, for use of convenience outlets.
