Electrical  Connection

POWER  CORD:

  

  The  electric  power  supply  requirement  
for  this  water  heater  is  120  VAC/60HZ,    
2  Amps.

  

  The  water  heater  comes  with  a  three  (3)  pin  
power  supply  cord.  Use  only  a  power  outlet  
with  a  ground  terminal.

  

  The  installation  of  an  GFCI  (Ground  Fault  
Circuit  Interrupter)  is  recommended.

  

  Keep  any  excess  of  the  power  supply  cord  
on  the  outside  of  the  water  heater.

  

  If  local  codes  require  hardwiring,  see  
instructions  for  “Hardwiring  the  Electrical  
Connections”

NOTICE:  Do  not  connect  power  until  
venting  installation  is  complete.  (See  Venting  
installation  pages  9-­14.)    

NOTICE:  Wait  ninety  (90)  seconds  after  
power  connected  for  the  first  time  to  initiate  
operation  of  the  water  heater.  

HARDWIRING  
THE  ELECTRICAL  CONNECTIONS:  

  

  Wiring  should  be  carried  out  by  a  qualified  
electrician  in  accordance  with  local  codes.

  

  The  water  heater  requires  120  VAC/60Hz  and  
should  be  properly  grounded.

  

  DO  NOT  connect  grounding  wire  to  water  
pipes,  gas  pipes,  telephone  cables,  lightning  
conductor  circuits  and  to  grounding  circuit  
of  other  equipment  that  carry  a  ground-­fault  
interrupter.

  

  An  ON/OFF  switch  must  be  provided  and  
installed  for  the  incoming  120VAC  power.

  

  Wire  the  water  heater  exactly  as  shown  
below.  A  wiring  diagram  is  also  found  
inside  of  the  cover  panel.

  

  A  green  screw  is  provided  in  the  enclosure  
for  a  grounding  connection.

  

  Connect  the  live  wire  to  black  leg  wire  and  
the  neutral  wire  to  the  white  neutral  wire.

   WARNING:  Shock  
hazard  line  voltage  is  
present.  Before  servicing  
the  water  heater,  turn  off  
the  electrical  power  to  the  
water  heater  at  the  main  
disconnect  or  circuit  
breaker.  Failure  to  do  so  
could  result  in  severe  
personal  injury  or  death.

CAUTION:  Label  

all  wires  prior  to  
disconnection  when  
servicing  controls.  Wiring  
errors  can  cause  improper  
and  dangerous  operation.  
Verify  correct  operation  
after  servicing.

WARNING:  Field  wiring  connections  and  electrical  grounding  must  comply  with  local  codes,  or  

in  the  absence  of  local  codes,  with  the  latest  edition  of  the  National  Electrical  Code,  ANSI/NFPA  70,  

or  in  Canada,  Canadian  Electrical  Code,  CSA  C22.1  Part  1.
