E. Electrical Connection
WARNING
For All Models
• Electrical connection must be hard-wired and must meet national, state, and local
electrical code requirements. Failure to meet these code requirements could result
in death, electric shock, serious injury, fire, or damage.
• The icemaker requires an independent power supply of proper capacity. See
the nameplate for electrical specifications. Failure to use an independent power
supply of proper capacity can result in a tripped breaker, blown fuse, damage to
existing wiring, or component failure. This could lead to heat generation or fire.
•
THE ICEMAKER MUST BE GROUNDED.
Failure to properly ground the icemaker
could result in death or serious injury.
• Electrical connection must be made in accordance with the instructions on the
"WARNING" tag, provided with the pig tail leads in the junction box. See Fig. 3.
Additional Warnings for Remote Models
•
THE REMOTE CONDENSER UNIT MUST BE GROUNDED.
Power supply and
ground wire to the remote condenser unit are supplied from the icemaker. See
"II.G.6. Electrical Connection." Failure to properly ground the remote condenser
unit could result in death or serious injury.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, make all remote condenser unit connections
before connecting the icemaker power supply.
NOTICE
On remote models, the appliance must have power for a minimum of 4 hours prior
to startup to prevent compressor damage.
• Usually an electrical permit and services of a licensed
electrician are required.
• The maximum allowable voltage variation is ±10 percent
of the nameplate rating.
• The white lead must be connected to the neutral
conductor of the power source.
NOTICE!
Miswiring
may result in severe damage to the icemaker.
• The opening for the power supply connection is 7/8" DIA
to fit a 1/2" trade size conduit.
