WARNING

!

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD – To ensure safety, turn off electrical 

power supply at service entrance panel before making any electrical 

connections to avoid possible electric shock hazard. Failure to do so 

could result in property damage, serious personal injury, or death.
Jumping out control circuits or components WILL VOID product 

warranty and can result in property damage, personal injury, or 

death.

Install wiring and electrically ground boiler in accordance with 

the installation manual, the authority having jurisdiction or, in 

the absence of such an authority, follow the National Electrical 

Code, NFPA 70, and/or CSA C22.1 Electrical Code-Part 1 in Canada. 

Failure to follow all applicable local, state, and national regulations, 

mandates, and building supply codes for guidelines to install the 

electrical power supply could result in property damage, serious 

personal injury, or death.

It is of extreme importance that this unit be properly grounded. It 

is very important that the building system ground is inspected by 

a qualified electrician prior to making this connection. Electrical 

power must only be turned on when the boiler is completely filled 

with cold water. Failure to follow these instructions could result in 

component or product failure, serious injury, or death.

CAUTION

!

Label all wires prior to disconnecting when servicing the boiler. 

Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. 

Failure to follow these instructions may result in property damage 

or personal injury.

1. Connecting Power (120V) for DHW and CH Circulators

NOTE:

 The CH and downstream IWH circulators MUST BE CONNECTED 

to the Master Boiler to ensure proper operation.

To connect power for the CH and DHW external pump at the boiler 

junction box:

1.  Shut off the power supply at the boiler and at the circuit breaker. 

2.  Shut off the gas at the manual shutoff.

3.  Remove the boiler front cover.

4.  Disconnect the three clips and open the junction box

5.  Insert the circulator power cable through the hole in the side 

panel; use an appropriate strain relief/conduit hub to secure the 

cable to the side panel.

6.  Connect the cable on the connector CN5 (CH pump) and CN4 

(DHW pump). See Electrical Wiring Diagram, Figure 3.

Figure 4 - 120V Connections for DHW and CH Circulators

2. Low Voltage Wiring Connections

To access the low voltage wiring connections:

1.  Shut off the power supply at the boiler and at the circuit breaker. 

2.  Shut off the gas at the manual shutoff.

3.  Remove the boiler front cover.

4.  Remove the screw securing the control panel to the cross-member 

(not applicable for ELU-85WBN, 120WBN, 120WCN, and 150WCN 

models. 

5.  Push in the tabs and pull the control panel housing forward.

6.  Disconnect the two clips. See Figure 4.

NOTE:

 Some newer thermostat models may draw too much 

power from the boiler and will require an additional power supply 

to operate properly. Review the instructions provided with the 

thermostat to determine if an additional power supply is needed. 

Failure to do so could result in improper boiler and/or thermostat 

operation.

CAUTION

DO NOT CONNECT 120V TO ANY CONTROL WIRING CONNECTION! 

DOING SO WILL RESULT IN IMPROPER OPERATION AND POSSIBLE 

DAMAGE TO THE BOILER. SUCH DAMAGES ARE NOT COVERED BY 

PRODUCT WARRANTY!

NOTE:

 Figures 1 and 2 are provided as further references for wiring 

cascade systems.

7.  Verify that the new cable is correctly positioned inside the 

control panel.

8.  Reconnect the cover of the junction box.

9.  Reinstall the boiler front cover

10.  Restore gas to the boiler.

11.  Restore power to the boiler.

Figure 5 - Releasing the Two Clips

7.  Open the control panel cover to have access to the main PCB. 

See Figure 5.
