Electric heat kits and operating controls

Low-voltage control connections

T

he low-voltage transformer is standard on all models.

The 24-V power supply is provided by an internally wired low-
voltage  transformer,  which  is  standard  on  all  air  handler  and
residential  packaged  unit  models.  Field  supplied  low-voltage
wiring can exit the unit on the top-right corner of the air handler
or the right-side panel of the air handler. See Figure 3 or Figure
4.  Residential  packaged  unit  models  have  provisions  for  low-
voltage wiring exits in the bottom or right side of the unit. See
Figure  5.  Remove  the  required  knockout  and  pierce  the  foil
faced  insulation  to  allow  the  wiring  to  pass  through.  Use  as
small a hole as possible to minimize air leakage. Install a 7/8-in.
plastic bushing in the selected hole and keep low-voltage wiring
as short as possible inside the control box. To further minimize
air leakage, seal the wiring entry point at the outside of the unit.
Connect  the  field  wiring  at  the  screw  terminals  of  the  control
board  or  on  low-voltage  wiring  leads  using  twist-on  wire  con-
nectors.

NOTICE

For blower speed connections, electrical information and wir-
ing diagrams, see indoor unit installation instructions.

NOTICE

The electric heat kits have both auto resettable and fusible
link thermal limit controls.
If failure occurs, this fusible link thermal limit control must be
replaced with a direct replacement.

NOTICE

All wiring must comply with local and national electrical code
requirements. Read and heed all unit caution labels.
