arrangement) or at factory-installed option non-fused disconnect
switch or HACR. Maximum wire size is #2ga AWG (copper only)
per pole on contactors, #2ga AWG (copper only) per pole on op-
tional disconnect or HACR, and 4/0 AWG (copper only) per pole
on terminal or fuse blocks on units with single point box (see
Fig. 17). See Fig. 18 and unit label diagram for field power wiring
connections.
NOTE: Unit may be equipped with short test leads (pigtails) on
the field line connection points on contactor C or optional discon-
nect switch. These leads are for factory-run test purposes only; re-
move and discard before connecting field power wires to unit con-
nection points. Make field power connections directly to line con-
nection pressure lugs only.
UNITS WITH FACTORY-INSTALLED NON-FUSED DIS-
CONNECT OR HACR
The factory-installed optional non-fused disconnect (NFD) or
HACR switch is located in a weatherproof enclosure located un-
der the main control box. The manual switch handle and shaft are
shipped in the disconnect or HACR enclosure. Assemble the shaft
and handle to the switch at this point. Discard the factory test leads
(see Fig. 18).
