Step 5

—Make Electrical Connections

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal

injury or death.
Unit cabinet must have an uninterrupted, unbroken

electrical ground to minimize the possibility of personal

injury if an electrical fault should occur. This ground

may consist of electrical wire connected to unit ground

lug in control compartment, or conduit approved for

electrical ground when installed in accordance with

NEC (National Electrical Code), ANSI/NFPA (National

Fire Protection Association), latest edition, and local

electrical codes. Do not use gas piping as an electrical

ground.

WARNING

Field Power Supply
All units except 208/230-v units are factory wired for the voltage
shown on the nameplate. If the 208/230-v unit is to be connected

to a 208-v power supply, the transformer must be rewired by

disconnecting the black wire from the 230-v 1/4--in. terminal on
the transformer and connecting it to the 200-v 1/4--in. terminal

from the transformer.
Refer to unit label diagram for additional information. Pigtails

are provided for field service. Use factory-supplied splices or UL

(Underwriters’ Laboratories) approved copper connector.
When installing units, provide a disconnect per NEC.
All field wiring must comply with NEC and local
requirements.
Install field wiring as follows:

1. Install conduit through side panel openings. For units

without electric heat, install conduit between disconnect
and control box.

2. Install power lines to terminal connections as shown in

Fig. 12.

3. For units with electric heat, refer to Accessory Electric

Heat Installation Instructions.

During operation, voltage to compressor terminals must be within

range indicated on unit nameplate (also see Table 3 and 4). On

3--phase units, voltages between phases must be balanced within
2% and the current within 10%. Use the formula shown in Table

3 and 4, Note 2, to determine the percentage of voltage
imbalance. Operation on improper line voltage or excessive phase

imbalance constitutes abuse and may cause damage to electrical
components. Such operation invalidates any applicable Bryant

warranty.
NOTE: If accessory thru-the-bottom connections and roof curb
are used, refer to the Thru-the-Bottom Accessory Installation
Instructions for information on wiring the unit.

Field Control Wiring
Install a Bryant-approved accessory thermostat assembly

according to installation instructions included with the accessory.
Locate thermostat assembly on a solid wall in the conditioned

space to sense average temperature in accordance with thermostat
installation instructions.
Route thermostat cable or equivalent single leads of colored wire

from subbase terminals through connector on unit to low-voltage
connections (shown in Fig. 10).
NOTE: For wire runs up to 50 ft, use no. 18 AWG (American
Wire Gauge) insulated wire (35_C minimum). For 50 to 75 ft, use
no. 16 AWG insulated wire (35_C minimum). For over 75 ft, use
no. 14 AWG insulated wire (35_C minimum). All wires larger
than no. 18 AWG cannot be directly connected to the thermostat
and will require a junction box and splice at the thermostat.

1. Connect thermostat wires to screw terminals of low

voltage terminal board.

2. Pass the control wires through the hole provided in the

control box.

3. Some models may be equipped with a raceway built into

the corner post on the left side of control box (See Fig.
12.) This raceway provides the required clearance between

high--voltage and low voltage wiring. For models without
a raceway, ensure to provide the NEC required clearance

between high--voltage and low--voltage wiring.

Heat Anticipator Settings
Set heat anticipator settings at 0.8 amp for first stage and 0.3 for

second stage heating.
