Connect the leads of a two conductor cable (with a minimum cross section of #18 AWG) to
your enable/disable controller and run the cable to the boiler electrical junction box.

Open the boiler electrical junction box cover and connect the leads of the cable
to the “10”
and “11” terminals as shown in Figure 5-5, below.

5.2.2 Installing the Outdoor Temperature Sensor - Boilers
The outdoor temperature sensor is supplied with the boiler. Install the outdoor temperature
sensor on an exterior wall of the building facing NORTH or NORTH-EAST, at a height of
between 4 feet and 6 feet from the ground level. On multi-story buildings, install the sensor near
the upper half of the second floor. Do not install the sensor above doors, windows or ventilation
outlets nor directly under balconies or gutter pipes. Do not shield the outdoor temperature
sensor. Do not install the sensor on walls without overhangs, or that are not protected from rain.
Connect the outdoor temperature sensor to the boiler to
terminals “14” and “15” (see Figure 5-5,
above).
