Installing a 3-wire conduit

•  Aluminum building wire may be used but it must be rated for the correct amperage and voltage to 

make the connection. Connect wires according to Step 4 depending on the number of wires.

•  Wire used, location and enclosure of splices, etc., must conform to good wiring practices and local 

codes.

1. 

Loosen the 3 lower terminal screws from the terminal 
block.

2. 

Insert the center bare wire (white/neutral) tip through 
the bottom center terminal block opening. On certain 
models, the wire will need to be inserted through the 
ground strap opening and then into the bottom center 
block opening.

3. 

Insert the two side bare wire tips into the lower left 
and the lower right terminal block openings.

4. 

Tighten the screws until the wire is firmly secured (35 
to 50 inch-lbs.). Do not over-tighten the screws since 
it could damage the wires.

5. 

Go to 

step 5

 on page 10 and proceed with the 

installation.
