2.4 E-BOX

Every HE4XINV is equipped with what is known as an “E-Box.” High-voltage supply wiring 
and low-voltage control wiring is all terminated here. When VFDs are installed in the unit, the 
VFD keypads are installed here. If optional integrated programmable controls are installed, an 
additional 24 VAC transformer is installed here to power both the controller and its dedicated 
sensors.

FIGURE 2.4.0 E-BOX WITH MOTOR STARTERS

NOTE: Every ERV 
has an attached 
electrical connec-
tion box, known as 

the E-Box. It is attached to 
the outside of the ERV and 
all electrical connections 
are made there. There is 
a high-voltage side and 
a low-voltage side. See 
Figure 2.4.0.
