Fig. 20 -- Convenience Outlet Utilization Notice Label

Duty Cycle: the unit--powered convenience outlet has a duty

cycle limitation. The transformer is intended to provide

power on an intermittent basis for service tools, lamps, etc; it

is not intended to provide 15--amps loading for continuous

duty loads (such as electric heaters for overnight use).

Observe a 50% limit on circuit loading above 8--amps.

Convenience outlet usage rating:

Continuous usage: 8 amps maximum

Intermittent usage: up to 15 amps maximum for

up to 2 hours maximum

Test the GFCI receptacle by pressing the TEST button on

the face of the receptacle to trip and open the receptacle.

Check for proper grounding wires and power line phasing

if the GFCI receptacle does not trip as required. Press the

RESET button to clear the tripped condition.

Factory--Option Thru--Base Connections —

This service connection kit consists of a

1

--in electrical

bulkhead connector and a

3

4

--in electrical bulkhead

connector, all factory--installed in the embossed (raised)

section of the unit basepan in the condenser section. The

3

/

4

--in bulkhead connector enables the low--voltage control

wires to pass through the basepan. The

1

/

2

--in electrical

bulkhead connector allows the high--voltage power wires

to pass through the basepan. See Fig. 21.

Fig. 21 -- Thru--Base Connection Fittings

Check tightness of connector lock nuts before connecting

electrical conduits.

Field--supplied and field--installed liquid tight conduit

connectors and conduit may be attached to the connectors

on the basepan. Pull correctly rated high voltage and low

voltage through appropriate conduits. Connect the power

conduit to the internal disconnect (if unit is so equipped)

or to the external disconnect (through unit side panel). A

hole must be field cut in the main control box bottom on

the left side so the 24--v control connections can be made.

Connect the control power conduit to the unit control box

at this hole.

Units without Thru--Base Connections —

1. Install power wiring conduit through side panel open-

ings. Install conduit between disconnect and control

box.

2. Install power lines to terminal connections as shown

in Fig. 15.

Voltage to compressor terminals during operation must be

within voltage range indicated on unit nameplate. See

Table 4. On 3--phase units, voltages between phases must

be balanced within 2% and the current within 10%. Use

the formula shown in the legend for Table 5, Note 2 to

determine the percent of voltage imbalance. Operation on

improper line voltage or excessive phase imbalance

constitutes abuse and may cause damage to electrical

components. Such operation would invalidate any

applicable Bryant warranty.

Field Control Wiring —

The 551J unit requires an external temperature control

device. This device can be a thermostat emulation device

provided as part of a third--party Building Management

System.

Thermostat —

Install a Bryant--approved accessory thermostat according

to installation instructions included with the accessory.

For complete economizer function, select a two--stage

cooling thermostat. Locate the thermostat accessory on a

solid wall in the conditioned space to sense average

temperature in accordance with the thermostat installation

instructions.

If the thermostat contains a logic circuit requiring 24--v

power, use a thermostat cable or equivalent single leads of

different colors with minimum of seven leads. If the

thermostat does not require a 24--v source (no “C”

connection required), use a thermostat cable or equivalent

with minimum of six leads. Check the thermostat

installation instructions for additional features which

might require additional conductors in the cable.

Using unit--mounted convenience outlets: Units with

unit--mounded convenience outlet circuits will often

require that two disconnects be opened to de--energize all

power to the unit. Treat all units as electrically energized

until the convenience outlet power is also checked and

de--energization is confirmed. Observe National Electrical

Code Article 210, Branch Circuits, for use of convenience

outlets.

For wire runs up to 50 ft. (15 m), use no. 18 AWG

(American Wire Gage) insulated wire [35_C (95_F)

minimum]. For 50 to 75 ft. (15 to 23 m), use no. 16 AWG

insulated wire [35_C (95_F) minimum]. For over 75 ft.

(23 m), use no. 14 AWG insulated wire [35_C (95_F)

minimum]. All wire sizes larger than no. 18 AWG cannot

be directly connected to the thermostat and will require a

junction box and splice at the thermostat.
