All electrical wiring must meet National Electrical Code, N.F.P.A. #70 for furnaces installed in
U.S., and C.S.A. Standard C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Park 1, for Canada.
Install a panel mounted breaker for single phase 115V max 30 AMP grounded service. Run
minimum of 10 gauge wire in metal conduit to the 6” x 6” junction box at furnace. Do this with
the power still “OFF”. TIP: If the main breaker is far from the heater, installing a manual switch
or breaker near the heater may be required by code. It is also handy for cutting main power in an
emergency or for servicing.
For field wiring of oil pump and accessories use min 14 gauge wiring.
