If a transformer is wired from the factory for 12V, 
for 24V secondary wiring: Disconnect the blue and 
yellow wires from terminal blocks and connect 
together with wire nut. The brown wire now 
becomes the common side of the load, and the 
violet wire should be connected to the secondary 
circuit breaker, which is the line side of the load. 
Please refer to the wiring diagrams on this page.

If a transformer is wired from the factory for 
24V, for 12V secondary wiring: Disconnect the 
blue and yellow wires from terminal block. 
Connect yellow and brown wire into terminal 
block, which becomes the common side of the 
load. Connect blue and violet wires into 
terminal block, which should be connected to 
the secondary circuit breaker(s) which 
becomes the line side of the load Please refer 
to the wiring diagrams on this page.
