3-WIRE CONDUIT INSTALLATION
Loosen the 3 lower terminal screws from
the terminal block. Insert the center bare
wire (white/neutral) tip through the
bottom center terminal block opening.
On certain models, the wire will need to
be inserted through the ground strap
opening and then into the bottom center
block opening. Insert the two side bare
wire tips into the lower left and the lower
right terminal block openings. Tighten the
screws until the wire is firmly secured (35 to
50 inch-lbs.). Do not over-tighten the
screws since it could damage the wires.
NOTE: ALUMINUM WIRING:
Aluminum building wire may be used but
it must be rated for the correct amperage
and voltage to make connection. Connect
wires according to this Step 6 or Step 7
depending on number of wires.
Wire used, location and enclosure of
splices, etc., must conform to good
wiring practices and local codes.
Skip to Step 8 and proceed with the
installation.
