WIRING THE BG-101 IN A
CONVENTIONAL HVAC SYSTEM
(To ensure proper performance of product,
instructions must be followed.)
Ensure the power is disconnected to the unit at
the main panel prior to moving to the next step.
Refer to the appliance manufacturer’s installation
and operating instructions and also review wire
layout in their instructions.
Locate the Red wire coming from the 24 volt
thermostat “R” terminal.
NOTE: If not present, it is recommended that an
inline fuse to protect 24-volt circuit be installed.
Disconnect or cut red wire. Connect one of the
long wires of the BG-101, using a wire nut, to the
thermostat side of the circuit. Connect the other
long wire of the BG-101, using a wire nut, to the air
handler side of the circuit or to the terminal in the
unit. Incorporating both switch wires in the red
circuit will shut the unit off (fig.3)
