ELECTRIC WELL HOOKUP
Mount a 480v-120v step-down transformer to supply 120v to the receiver. The Hot Shot Re-
ceiver only requires 1 watt of power to operate.
Hot Shot Systems suggest using a minimum of
a single phase 60 hertz 0.050kVA transformer. They are available for purchase through Hot
Shot Systems, just request when ordering.
Mount a 3 terminal fuse block and a 120vac relay.
Hot Shot Systems suggest using a 115V AC
coil relay. They are available for purchase through Hot Shot Systems, just request when or-
dering.
Wire two, 480v conductors through the first two fuses (1/2 or 1 amp each) to the primary side
of the step-down transformer.
Terminals may be different according to the transformer
installed
.
Wire the 120v
X1
terminal of the step-down transformer through the remaining fuse (1 amp)
which then goes to the first 120vac input of the Hot Shot Receiver (120 volt polarity does not
matter).
Wire the 120v
X2
terminal of the step-down transformer to the neutral 120vac input of the Hot
Shot Receiver (see diagram on the next page).
Add a jumper from the first 120vac terminal to the Hot Shot Receivers relay
COM.
terminal
(see diagram on the next page).
Wire the
NO.
terminal on the Hot Shot Receiver to one side of the 120v relay coil.
Connect the other side of the relay coil to the
X2
terminal of the step-down transformer.
Connect a wire from the
Ground
terminal of the Hot Shot Receiver to a central grounding
system
(ground rod)
.
CAUTION
: Never switch any voltage greater than 120v with the Hot Shot Receivers internal
relays. This will ruin the relay and void all manufacturer warranties. Use an externally
mounted 120v coil relay to switch all voltages greater than 120v. This will be shown later in
Electric Well Hookup section.
HOT SHOT RECEIVERS NEED TO BE TURNED ON BEFORE THE HOT SHOT TRANSMITTERS
ARE TURNED ON. HOT SHOT TRANSMITTERS ONLY TRANSMITT FOR 1 MINUTE. IF THE RE-
CEIVER IS TURNED ON AFTER THE TRANSMITTER IT WILL NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY UN-
TIL THE TRANSMITTER IS SET TO TRANSMITT AGAIN.
