Wireway Cover - Commercial Baseboard Only
a.

The wireway cover is a factory installed feature of Marley
commercial baseboard heaters. Two cables or four indi-
vidual conductors plus two ground wires may be routed
through the wireway. Refer to page 2 for maximum cur-
rent loads.

b.

To gain access to wireway, lay heater face down and
remove two screws as shown in Figure 4. Remove the
knockouts in the channel areas of both terminal boxes.

c.

Insert the plastic bushings from the parts kit (in wiring
compartment) in the knockout holes.

d.

Wire heater according to Figure 5. Reattach the wireway
cover using the two screws.

5.

Loosen screw in built-in cable clamp or remove
desired knockout from heater wiring compartment (Figures
3 and 4). Install power cable into wiring compartment allow-
ing at least 6in(153mm) of cable for connection to heater.
To install two power cables using the built-in cable clamp,
bend tab covering second hole up and back to rear wall of
wiring compartment. If built-in cable clamp is not used,
install approved cable connector (not included ) in desired
knockout.

6.

Position heater to wall (use cross stamped perforations as
a guide, see Figure 4) and secure through the top row of
predrilled mounting holes using at least two fasteners, one at
each end of the heater. If the unit is mounted above the floor
to allow carpet installation under the heater, two additional
mounting holes are supplied at each end below the element.
This will allow you to screw into the sill plate if the unit does
not span across two wall studs.

To prevent a possible fire, make sure all wire connections are
tight.
