should extend below level of furnace gas controls. Place a ground
joint union between furnace gas control valve and exterior

manual equipment gas shutoff valve.
A 1/8--in. (3 mm) NPT plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge

connection, MUST be installed immediately upstream of gas

supply connection to furnace and downstream of manual
equipment shutoff valve.
Piping should be pressure and leak tested in accordance with the
current addition of the NFGC in the United States, local, and

national plumbing and gas codes before the furnace has been

connected. After all connections have been made, purge lines and
check for leakage at furnace prior to operating furnace.
If pressure exceeds 0.5 psig (14--In. W.C.), gas supply pipe must
be disconnected from furnace and capped before and during

supply pipe pressure test. If test pressure is equal to or less than

0.5 psig (14--In. W.C.), turn off electric shutoff switch located on
furnace gas control valve and accessible manual equipment

shutoff valve before and during supply pipe pressure test. After
all connections have been made, purge lines and check for

leakage at furnace prior to operating furnace.
The gas supply pressure shall be within the maximum and

minimum inlet supply pressures marked on the rating plate with

the furnace burners ON and OFF.

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

injury or death.
Blower access panel door switch opens 115--v power to

control. No component operation can occur. Do not

bypass or close switch with panel removed.

!

WARNING

See Fig. 25 for field wiring diagram showing typical field 115--v
wiring. Check all factory and field electrical connections for

tightness.
Field--supplied wiring shall conform with the limitations of 63_F
(33_C) rise.

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

injury, death, or property damage.
The cabinet MUST have an uninterrupted or unbroken

ground according to NEC ANSI/NFPA 70--2008 or local

codes to minimize personal injury if an electrical fault

should occur. This may consist of electrical wire, conduit

approved for electrical ground or a listed, grounded power

cord (where permitted by local code) when installed in

accordance with existing electrical codes. Refer to the

power cord manufacturer’s ratings for proper wire gauge.

Do not use gas piping as an electrical ground.

!

WARNING

FURNACE MAY NOT OPERATE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in intermittent

furnace operation.
Furnace control must be grounded for proper operation or

else control will lock out. Control must remain grounded

through green/yellow wire routed to gas valve and manifold

bracket screw.

CAUTION

!

115--V Wiring
Verify that the voltage, frequency, and phase correspond to that

specified on unit rating plate. Also, check to be sure that service

provided by utility is sufficient to handle load imposed by this
equipment. Refer to rating plate or Table 7 for equipment

electrical specifications.
U.S. Installations: Make all electrical connections in accordance

with National Electrical Code (NEC) ANSI/NFPA 70--2008 and

any local codes or ordinances that might apply.
