A factory included junction box is located in the lower compartment
of the fireplace. Wiring must be fed through the 7/8" diameter hole
provided on the lower side of the fireplace, and secured to the
outer wrap with the clamp provided. Leave approximately 6” of
wire in the junction box for connection.
Attach black wire to one side of the receptacle and white wire to
opposite side of receptacle. The ground wire should be attached
to the green (ground) screw.
See Figure 74.
Install the receptacle into the junction box as illustrated.
Attach cover plate. Place Junction Box so that it is approximately 8
to 12" away from the outer wrap wall. Secure wiring at outer wrap

Wiring
The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes,
with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70
, if an external
electrical source is utilized.
This appliance is equipped with
a three-prong [grounding] plug for your protection against
shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly
grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the
grounding prong from this plug.
For an ungrounded receptacle,
an adapter, which has two prongs and a wire for grounding, can be
purchased, plugged into the ungrounded receptacle and its wire
connected to the receptacle mounting screw. With this wire com-
pleting the ground, the appliance cord plug can be plugged into the
adapter and be electrically grounded.
CAUTION:
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servic-
ing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous
operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.
NOTE:
Junction box is to be located in the lower compartment
of the fireplace and must be pre-wired at time of fireplace
installation for use with blower assembly. A standard ON/
OFF wall switch or SCV-1 variable speed control kit should
be installed to activate power to the Junction Box and pro-
vide power for the operation of the blower assembly. It is
recommended that installation of the wiring be performed
by a qualified electrician.
See Figure 70.
1. If installed, turn OFF gas supply to fireplace.
2. If applicable, turn OFF electric supply to fireplace.
3. Remove bottom louver from fireplace.
CAUTION:
ALL WIRING SHOULD BE DONE BY A QUALI-
FIED ELECTRICIAN AND SHALL BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH
ALL LOCAL, CITY AND STATE BUILDING CODES. BEFORE
MAKING THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION, MAKE SURE
THAT MAIN POWER SUPPLY IS DISCONNECTED. THE
APPLIANCE, WHEN INSTALLED, MUST BE ELECTRICAL-
LY GROUNDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL CODES,
WITH THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE ANSI/NFPA 70
(LATEST EDITION).
