Electrical Requirements
Travis Industries manufactures an “Insert Wiring Kit” for this insert (sku 97200315). This kit allows installers to
wire 120-volt ac power into a fireplace directly to the insert, eliminating the need for an external power cord.
Plug the power cord into a grounded 120-volt outlet (do not remove the grounding pin).
The appliance, when installed, 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
.
Do not route the power over the appliance or near any hot or moving components.
Re-Routing the Power Cord to the Front of the Insert
The power cord is shipped attached to the side of the insert. It may be routed to the front where it exits
behind the face but in front of the surround panel. See the directions below for details.

See the instructions included with the Insert wiring kit for attaching the kit to the side of the insert.
