ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD – For
your safety, turn off electrical power
supply before making any electrical
connections to avoid possible electric
shock hazard. Failure to do so can cause
severe personal injury or death.
Wiring must be N.E.C. Class 1.
If original wiring as supplied with boiler
must be replaced, use only type 105°C
wire or equivalent.
Boiler must be electrically grounded as
required by National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA 70 – latest edition.
Installation must comply with:
1. National Electrical Code and any other national, state,
provincial, or local codes, or regulations.
2. In Canada, CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part 1,
and any local codes.
Line voltage connections
1. Connect 120 vac power wiring to the line voltage terminal
strip in the junction box, as shown in FIG. 8-1.
2. Provide and install a fused disconnect or service switch
(15 amp recommended) as required by the code (see
FIG. 8-1).
3. The boiler pump is shipped loose. Wire the boiler pump
