Each unit must be connected to a dedicated electrical circuit. NO OTHER DEVICES SHOULD
BE ON THE SAME ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT AS THE BOILER.
A double-pole switch must be installed on the electrical supply line in an easily accessible
location to quickly and safely disconnect electrical service. DO NOT attach the switch to sheet
metal enclosures of the unit.
After placing the unit in service, the ignition safety shutoff device must be tested. If an external
electrical power source is used, the installed boiler must be electrically bonded to ground in
accordance with the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. In the absence of such
requirements, the installation shall conform to National Electrical Code (NEC), ANSI/NFPA 70
and/or the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) Part I, CSA C22.1 Electrical Code.
For electrical power wiring diagrams, see the AERCO Benchmark Electrical Power Guide, (GF-
2060).
2.10 FIELD CONTROL WIRING
Each unit is fully wired from the factory with an internal operating control system. No field control
wiring is required for normal operation. However, the C-More Control system used with all
Benchmark units does allow for some additional control and monitoring features. Wiring
connections for these features are made on the Input/Output (I/O) board located behind the
removable front panel assembly of the unit. The I/O board is located in the center-right portion
on the front of the unit directly below the C-More Control Panel as shown in Figure 2-11.
