ELECTRICAL CONNECTION TO J-BOX
Field-Supplied Electrical Box on Furnace J-Box Bracket
See Fig. 24.
1. Remove cover from furnace J-Box.
2. Attach electrical box to furnace J-Box bracket with at least
two field-supplied screws through holes in electrical box into
holes in bracket. Use blunt-nose screws that will not pierce
wire insulation.
3. Route furnace power wires through holes in electrical box and
J-Box bracket, and make field-wire connections in electrical
box. Use best practices (NEC in U.S. and CSA C22.1 in
Canada) for wire bushings, strain relief, etc.
4. Route and secure field ground wire to green ground screw on
J-Box bracket.
5. Connect line voltage leads as shown in Fig. 22.
6. Reinstall cover to J-Box. Do not pinch wires between cover
and bracket.

If field-supplied manual disconnect switch is to be mounted
on furnace casing side, select a location where a drill or
fastener cannot damage electrical or gas components.
1. Select and remove a hole knockout in the casing where the

* Permissible limits of the voltage range at which the unit operates satisfactorily.
# Unit ampacity = 125 percent of largest operating component’s full load amps plus 100 percent of all other potential operating components’ (EAC, humidifier, etc.) full
load amps.
† Time-delay type is recommended.
‡ Length shown is as measured 1 way along wire path between unit and service panel for maximum 2 percent voltage drop.
