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

injury or death.
The 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 an electrical wire connected to the unit ground

screw in the control compartment, or conduit approved for

electrical ground when installed in accordance with NFPA

70 (NEC) (latest edition) (in Canada, Canadian Electrical

Code CSA C22.1) and local electrical codes.

WARNING

UNIT COMPONENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in damage to the

unit being installed.

1. Make all electrical connections in accordance with

NFPA 70 (NEC) (latest edition) and local electrical codes
governing such wiring. In Canada, all electrical

connections must be in accordance with CSA standard
C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part 1 and applicable
local codes. Refer to unit wiring diagram.

2. Use only copper conductor for connections between

field--supplied electrical disconnect switch and unit. DO

NOT USE ALUMINUM WIRE.

3. Be sure that high--voltage power to unit is within

operating voltage range indicated on unit rating plate. On

3--phase units, ensure phases are balanced within 2
percent. Consult local power company for correction of

improper voltage and/or phase imbalance.

4. Do not damage internal components when drilling

through any panel to mount electrical hardware, conduit,
etc.

!

CAUTION

HIGH--VOLTAGE CONNECTIONS

The unit must have a separate electrical service with a

field--supplied, waterproof disconnect switch mounted at, or within
sight from the unit. Refer to the unit rating plate, NEC and local

codes for maximum fuse/circuit breaker size and minimum circuit
amps (ampacity) for wire sizing.
The field--supplied disconnect may be mounted on the unit over

the high--voltage inlet hole when the standard power and
low--voltage entry points are used. See Fig. 2 and 3 for acceptable

location.
See unit wiring label (Fig. 12, 13 and 14) and Fig. 10 for reference

when making high voltage connections. Proceed as follows to

complete the high--voltage connections to the unit.
Single phase units:

1. Run the high--voltage (L1, L2) and ground lead into the

control box.

2. Connect ground lead to chassis ground connection.
3. Locate the black and yellow wires connected to the line side

of the contactor.

4. Connect field L1 to black wire on connection 11 of the

compressor contactor.
