boiler maintenance
. Minimum 2” clearance is required on
right side

Do not put pipes, ducts, vents, etc in this space.
Electrical conduit must be installed vertically so that the side
doors can be opened.
Bumping hazard from overhead ducts! Install all components with adequate
vertical clearances.

ONNECTIONS
The boiler is wired for 120 volts, single phase, 60 hertz.
The total operating amperage is indicated on the rating
nameplate. Each MACH® C1500GG-C2000GG boiler
requires less than 15 amps. Before starting the boiler,
check to ensure that the proper electrical service is
connected to the boiler.
An external electrical disconnect (not supplied with the
boiler) is required. The boiler electrical service must be
installed and grounded in accordance with local codes or
in the absence of such requirements, in the U.S. with
National Electrical Codes, ANSI/NFPA No. 70 latest
edition or, in Canada, to the Canadian Electrical Code,
Part I, CSA C22.1, latest edition. Conduit must be installed
vertically so that the side doors can be opened.
NOTICE!
A dedicated earth ground (green wire) and neutral is required to avoid nuisance shutdowns.
Do not ground through the conduit. It is also important that proper polarity be maintained.
The electrical junction boxes are located at the front sides of the boiler. A detailed schematic of the connections is
shown in section 6.1.
3.4.1 High Voltage (TB2) Terminal Block
The boiler power circuit requires 120 VAC, 60 hertz, with a dedicated neutral and ground as labeled. Electrical
service must be rated for 8 amps minimum. Before starting the boiler, check to ensure that the proper voltage and
amperage are connected to the boiler and that the boiler is connected to a suitable fused disconnect switch or circuit
breaker. There must be less than 1.0V from Neutral (TB2-3) to Ground (TB2-8)
120VAC Switched Output
-
This contact closes when the boiler is switched on. This provides 120VAC 5Amp
service to TB2-10. The neutral for this circuit is provided on TB2-3. When the boiler is switched off, this terminal is
switched off as well.
3 Way Valve-
This output is normally energized, keeping the three way valve providing heat to the building. The
Domestic Hot Water (DHW) call for heat de-energizes this circuit, causing the 3 way valve to self close, thereby
