WARNING

1.  Disconnect power supply before making wiring connections 

to prevent electrical shock and equipment damage.

2.  All appliances must be wired strictly in accordance with  

 wiring diagram furnished with the appliance. Any wiring  

different from the wiring diagram could result in a hazard  

 to persons and property.

3.  Any original factory wiring that requires replacement must 

be replaced with wiring material having a temperature 

rating of at least 105°C.

4.  Ensure that the supply voltage to the appliance, as  

indicated on the serial plate, is not 5% greater than or  

5% less than the rated voltage.

  1.   Installation of wiring must conform with local building codes, or in 

the absence of local codes, with the National Electric Code ANSI/

NFPA 70 - Latest Edition. Unit must be electri cally grounded in 

conformance to this code. In Canada, wiring must comply with 

CSA C22.1, Part 1, Electrical Code.

  2.    Two copies of the unit wiring diagram are provided with each unit. 

One is located in the side access control compartment and the 

other is supplied in the literature packet. Refer to this diagram for 

all wiring connections.

  3.   Make sure all multi-voltage components (motors, transform ers, 

etc.) are wired in accordance with the power supply voltage.

  4.    The power supply to the unit must be protected with a fused or 

circuit breaker switch.

  5.    The power supply must be within 5 percent of the voltage rating 

and each phase must be balanced within 2 percent of each other. 

If not, advise the utility company.

  6.    External electrical service connections that must be installed 

include:

    a.  Supply power connection (115, 208, 230, 460, or 575 volts).
    b.  Connection of thermostats, or any other accessory control 

devices that may be supplied (24 volts).

➀  

Amp draw data shown is operating amp 

draw at incoming power. For units that 

use a field installed accessory step-down 

transformer as noted, the amp draw 

shown is the primary side operating amp 

draw. For sizing of circuit protection for 

equipment with transformers, please refer 

to the National Electric Code.

➁  

For BTC models, add the Motor Amp 

Draw and Control Circuit Amp Draw to get 

the Total Unit Amp Draw.

➂  

Transformers for blower models are 

typically smaller than those used for 

propeller models, as the transformer is 

not needed for the blower motor.

 

   noTe: All units with supply voltage 208V and greater must use a 

field installed step-down transformer, available as a separate 

accessory. Refer to Tables 17.1 and 17.4 for additional 

information on the required transformer.

  7.    Refer to Figure 17.1 for the junction box wiring entry location. 

  8.    All supply power electrical connections are made in the junction 

box compartment of the unit. The low voltage (thermostat and 

accessory control devices) can be wired to the terminals on the 

junction box. 

Additional notes for the Condensate Pump outlet:

  9.   The condensate pump outlet supplied with this unit is intended for 

use with a condensate pump with operating amps not to exceed 

2 Amps.

 10.   The condensate pump cutlet can be used as a service outlet. To 

be used as a service outlet, the disconnect switch located above 

the outlet must be in the OFF position to disable the unit heater 

power and gas control circuits to prevent equipment damage. 

When the unit is wired directly to a 115V power supply, the outlet 

is rated for a maximum load of 20 amps at 115V. If this unit has 

been provided with an accessory step-down transformer to 115V 

from a higher supply voltage, ensure that the load plugged into 

the outlet does not exceed 8A for 1.0kVA or 12A for 1.5kVA rated 

transformers.
