4. THE ELECTRICAL ASSEMBLY
The three electrical circuits required by your project are detailed in this section.
The Halcyon Gas Fireplace requires seven electrical connections for complete operation; a system ground (earth) connection
plus two connections to the Lamp Circuit, two connections to the Control Circuit and two connections to a thermostat or remote
control receiver. The Control and Lamp Circuits are provided on-site and must be installed according to all applicable codes; the
Thermostat Wire is provided with the Halcyon.
When completed, all of these connections are inside the Wiring Tunnel, located behind the Cover Plate on the lower left side of the
Halcyon.
Figure 18
shows a schematic electrical wiring diagram and
Table 7
lists the wire colors.
Lamp Circuit
A switched 120V AC circuit must be installed in order to light the two interior lamps. The switch may be either a lamp dimmer
rated for at least 500 watts (recommended) or a SPST switch. The Lamp Circuit is connected to the blue and purple wires.
Control Circuit
The Control Circuit is a 120V AC supply circuit which provides electrical power solely to the Control Module and is used to power
the control and safety systems. The Control Circuit
must not contain a dimmer
but it may be switched. The Control Circuit is
connected to the black and white wires.
Thermostat Circuit
The Thermostat Circuit is powered by a 24V AC transformer inside of the Halcyon and consists of 25 feet of thermostat wire (wired
to the Control Module) and a remote control receiver (included.) Alternatively, the Thermostat Circuit may be wired to a customer-
provided 24V thermostat or SPST switch.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation.
This appliance must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or, in the absence of local codes, with either the
National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, for installations in the U.S. or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22. 1 for installations in
Canada.
Electrical work should only be performed by a qualified, licensed electrician. Electric power must be off when making
connections at the Junction Box or performing any service.
All wiring shall be in compliance with all local, city, and state codes.
