6. Electrical Connection
WARNING
• Electrical connection must meet national, state, and local electrical code
requirements. Failure to meet these code requirements could result in death,
electric shock, serious injury, fire, or damage.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, make all remote condenser unit connections
before connecting the icemaker power supply.
•
THE REMOTE CONDENSER UNIT MUST BE GROUNDED.
Install a ground wire
from the icemaker fan motor junction box to the remote condenser unit junction
box. Use wire of an appropriate gage and outdoor rating. Failure to properly
ground the remote condenser unit could result in death or serious injury.
• Install line and neutral wires from the fan motor leads in the icemaker fan motor
junction box to the leads in the remote condenser unit junction box. Use wire of an
appropriate gage and outdoor rating.
• Do not connect the fan motor leads in the icemaker to incoming power source. Do
not connect the fan motor leads in the icemaker together. Do not allow the leads
to contact the junction box walls.
• Do not connect the remote condenser unit to an external power source.
NOTICE
On remote models, the appliance must have power for a minimum of 4 hours prior
to startup to prevent compressor damage.
• Usually an electrical permit and services of a licensed electrician are required.
• The opening for the power supply connection is 7/8" DIA to fit a 1/2" trade size conduit.
