WARNING
All information in this manual is for
reference and guidance purposes,
and does not substitute for required
professional training, conduct,
and strict adherence to applicable
jurisdictional/professional codes and
regulations.
Assure all electrical connections are
powered down prior to attempting
replacement or service of electrical
components or connections of the
equipment.
Electrical Supply
Adhere to the following for electrical supply installation:
1. Install wiring and ground in equipment in accordance with authority
having jurisdiction or in absence of such requirements the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
2. Provide a wall-mounted, fused disconnect sized for the unit. This must be
fi tted by the client/contractor if disconnect is not supplied on the panel.
3. Size fuses according to motor name plates and local electrical codes.
4. Connect power to the terminal strip as supplied on the inside of the panel
box.
NOTE:  Single skid systems are generally shipped completely prewired.
NOTE:  The liquid level switch on the expansion tank, when supplied, will be
shipped in the parts box and must be installed in the fi eld.
5. Determine multiple skid systems wiring requirements (between the skids).
Fulton will run conduit and wire the devices on each skid. For the devices
that have to come down for shipping, the wire will be left at the end of the
conduit where possible and wired in the fi eld (by others). When the system
has multiple skids that are adjoining, the conduit will be installed to break
at the skid joints. The wire for the conduit running between the skids
will be shipped loose to prevent damage when the skids are put back
together. These wires will need to be run by the installing contractor in the
fi eld and wired to proper locations. If there is wiring between skids that are
not adjoining, then this will need to be done by qualifi ed personnel.
NOTE:

If the unit is not skid-mounted at the factory, the client/contractor is
required to wire the circulating / feed water pump starter.
NOTE:  If the circulating pump motor is not supplied by Fulton, the motor starter
will not be supplied.
6. Locate electrical schematic diagram, a copy of which is inside of the panel
box.
7. Ensure the information on the electrical drawing corresponds to your
voltage and frequency. Adhere to the following:
 Typical 120 VAC controls allow for a +10% and -15% voltage fl uctuation.
 Motors are designed to operate within the following limits at the motor
terminals: AC power supplied is within +/- 10% of the motor rated voltage
with the rated frequency applied; or AC power supplied is within +/- 5% of
the rated frequency and with the rated voltage; or a combined variation
in voltage and frequency of +/- 10% (sum of absolute values) of rated
values provided the frequency variation does not exceed +/-5% of rated
