ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE!
DISCONNECT ALL ELECTRIC
POWER INCLUDING REMOTE
DISCONNECTS BEFORE
SERVICING. Failure to
disconnect power before
servicing can cause severe
personal injury or death.
The rooftop duct fur nace is wired at the factor y
and ready to be connected. Actual wiring will differ
according to the options used. Each furnace will be
shipped with its own wiring diagram; refer to this wiring
diagram for all electrical connections to the unit.
All electrical connections must conform to the latest
edition of ANSI/NFPA No. 70 National Electrical Code
and applicable local codes; In Canada, to the Canadian
Electrical Code, Part I CSA Standard C22.1.
Do not use any tools (i.e. screwdriver,
pliers, etc.) across the terminals to check for power.
Use a voltmeter.
The outdoor conduits leading into the unit should be
installed to prevent rain from wetting any high voltage
wire. Locate the thermostat in accordance with the
instructions packed with each thermostat.
NOTICE: Should any original wire supplied with the
heater have to be replaced, it must be replaced with
wiring material having a temperature rating of at
least 105°C (221°F).
