(IE: relay coil) to this circuit. This will damage the CCB circuit 

board and is not covered under the limited warranty.

connecting an external supervisory control

The enable/disable circuit is accessed from the CCB’s J6 plug 

inside the CCB enclosure, see Figure 3 on page 8 to locate the 

CCB enclosure. From the factory there is a short (black) jumper 

wire installed between pins 8 and 11 of the J6 plug, see Figure 

60 on page 63 to locate the J6 plug.
Install field wiring to the enable/disable circuit:
1.  Turn  off  power  at  the  water  heater’s  on/off  switch  and  the 

breaker that supplies power to the appliance.

2.  Locate the CCB enclosure.
3.  Remove  the  screws  from  the  CCB  enclosure  cover  and 

carefully open the CCB enclosure. Note how strain relief for 

the wiring is provided between the cover and enclosure along 

one edge.

4.  Activate the enable/disable circuit; locate the S1 dipswitch on 

the CCB, see Figure 60 on page 63. 

•  Toggle S1 dipswitch #2 to the open position.
•  Toggle S1 dipswitch #3 to the open position.

5.  Locate the black jumper wire between pin 8 and 11 on the 

CCB J6 plug, see Figure 60 on page 63 and Figure 61 on 

page 64.

6.  Cut the black jumper wire in the middle.
7.  Strip approximately 1/2 inch of insulation from the two ends 

of the black jumper wire.

8.  Using wire nuts connect two field supplied control wires to 

the two ends of the black jumper wire. Wrap electrical tape 

around the wire nut connections.

9.  Thread the control wires out of the CCB enclosure with the 

other wiring and carefully replace the CCB enclosure cover. 

Ensure all wiring is routed through the indented area provided 

for strain relief. Ensure no wiring is being pinched.

10. Reinstall the CCB enclosure cover screws and tighten.
11. Route the control wires inside the junction box on the top of 

the  water  heater,  see  Figure  3  on  page  8  to  locate  the 

junction box. Use an available knock-out to route the wires 

inside the junction box.

12. Install field supplied control wiring and conduit as required 

by  national  and  local  codes  between  the  water  heater’s 

junction box and the external supervisory control. Connect 

the wiring from the external control to the control wires inside 

the junction box using wire nuts and electrical tape.

13. Connect  the  control  wiring  to  a  set  of  dry  contacts  on  the 

external control. Follow the control manufacturers instructions 

for making connections.

14. Restore power to the water heater.

note:

  Whenever  the  external  control  opens  the  set  of  dry 

contacts  used,  heating  operation  will  be  disabled.  Whenever 

the external control closes the set of dry contacts used, heating 

operation  will  be  enabled.  A  diagonal  line  and  circle  appears 

over the thermometer icon on the control system’s display when 

heating operation is disabled. See the Status Icons descriptions 

in Table 11 on page 43.

note:

  Ensure  the  water  heater  is  protected  from  freezing 

temperatures  when  heating  operation  is  disabled.  Damage  to 

the water heater caused by freezing temperatures is not covered 

under the limited warranty.

electrical wiring

All  electrical  work  must  be  installed  in  accordance  with  the 

National  Electrical  Code,  ANSI/NFPA  70  or  the  Canadian 

Electrical Code, CSA C22.1 and local requirements.
When installed, the water heater must be electrically grounded 

in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, 

with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 or the Canadian 

Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.
If any of the original wire as supplied with the water heater must 

be replaced, it must be replaced with 105°C rated wiring or its 

equivalent, except in the burner housing. In this case use 200°C 

rated wire must be used.

power supply connections

Read the requirements for the Power Supply on page 13 before 

connecting power.

correct polarity:

The  water  heater’s  control  system  is  polarity  sensitive  and 

will lock out and disable heating operation if the polarity of the 

power  supply  is  reversed.  The  control  system  will  display  the 

“AC  Reversed”  Fault  message  on  the  LCD. The  120  VAC  hot 

wire from the power supply must connect to the black wire in the 

junction box and the 120 VAC neutral wire must connect to the 

white wire in the junction box for correct polarity.
Power supply connections must be made as follows: 
1.  Ensure  the  power  supply  is  turned  off  at  the  breaker  or 

disconnect switch.

2.  Remove the junction box cover. See Figure 3 on page 8 for 

junction box location. 

3.  Connect the 120 VAC hot wire from the power supply to the 

black wire in the junction box on top of the water heater with a 

properly sized wire nut. Wrap electrical tape around the wire 

nut and wire end. See wiring diagrams Figure 61 on page 64 

and Figure 62 on page 65.

4.  Connect the 120 VAC neutral wire from the power supply to 

the white wire in the junction box. Wrap electrical tape around 

the wire nut and wire end. See wiring diagrams Figure 61 on 

page 64 and Figure 62 on page 65.

5.  Connect  the  ground  wire  from  the  power  supply  to  the 

grounding lug inside the junction box. See wiring diagrams 

Figure 61 on page 64 and Figure 62 on page 65.

6.  Replace  the  junction  box  cover  when  connections  are 

complete.

note:

 Do not apply power to the water heater before installation 

is complete and the water heater is filled with water.

enable/disable circuit

The  water  heaters  covered  in  this  manual  are  equipped  with 

an  enable/disable  circuit  for  use  with  field  supplied  external 

supervisory  controls  such  as  time  clocks  or  building  Building 

Management Systems. The enable/disable circuit may be used 

to disable heating operation during periods when the building is 

unoccupied or there is no demand for hot water.
To  use  the  enable/disable  circuit  it  must  first  be  activated  by 

configuring the S1 dipswitch on the water heater’s CCB (central 

control board), see Figure 60 on page 63. Field supplied wiring 

is then installed between the water heater’s CCB and a set of 

“dry contacts” (no voltage or load) on the field supplied external 

control. 

note:

 The water heater’s enable/disable circuit is a switching 

circuit only: Do not apply external voltage or connect any load
