Wiring Precautions
The quality of the electrical installation is a major factor in maintaining proper safety levels
and providing trouble-free operation of your Gasboy pump/remote dispenser. To assure a
quality installation, follow these rules:
1 All wiring must be installed to conform with all building/fire codes, all Federal, State, and
Local codes, National Electrical Code, (NFPA 70), NFPA 30, and Automotive and Marine
Service Station Code (NFPA 30A) codes and regulations. Canadian users must also comply
with the Canadian Electrical Code.
2 Use only threaded, rigid, metal conduit.
3 Use only UL-labeled insulated gasoline- and oil-resistant stranded copper wiring of the proper
size.
4 Wire connections should be tightly spliced and secured with a wire nut; close off the open end
of the wire nut with electrical tape.
5 The line to the motor should be on a separate circuit and installed on a 20 to 30 AMP breaker
depending on the motor size and/or the voltage setting.
6 Install an emergency power cutoff. In addition to circuit breaker requirements of NFPA 70 and
NFPA 30A, a single control which simultaneously removes AC power from all site dispensing
equipment is recommended. This control must be readily accessible, clearly labeled, and in
accordance with all local codes.
In a Fuel Management System application, the EMERGENCY STOP and STOP keys on the
console and/or the optional EMERGENCY STOP button on the Island Card Reader do not
remove AC power from equipment and under certain conditions will not stop product flow.
In order to provide the highest level of safety to you, your employees, and customers, we
recommend that all employees be trained as to the location and procedure for turning off
power to the entire system.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of electrical shock when servicing, turn off and lock out all power to the pump/
remote dispenser. In submersible pump applications, turn off and lock out power to the submersible
pump and any other remote dispensers that use that submersible pump. AC power can feed back
into a shut-off dispenser when remote dispensers share a common submersible pump or starter
relay.

7 Have the pump/remote dispenser installed by a competent installer/electrician.
