Heater wiring schematic diagram with relays

When multiple heating units need to be connected from a single controller a relay will be required. It is recommended that
you talk to your electrician for more detail.  Below is an example circuit indicating a potential installation configuration.
Always check with your electrician and ensure all wiring is in accordance with local regulations.

Note to electrician: The controller modulates the heat output using a “timed on / timed off” function.  The controller does not
modulate the voltage output.  A relay is therefore suitable for this application.

CAUTION: A MINIMUM 250W LOAD MUST BE PLACED ACROSS THE CONTROLLER

Failure to provide this minimum load will potentially damage both the relay/contactor AND
