Two types of convenience outlets are offered on 48HC

models: Non--unit powered and unit--powered. Both types

provide a 125--volt GFCI (ground--fault circuit--interrupter)

duplex receptacle rated at 15--A behind a hinged access

cover, located on the corner panel of the unit. See Fig. 26.

Cover:

A

weatherproof

while-in-use cover for the factory-installed convenience

outlets is now required by UL standards. This cover cannot

be factory-mounted due to its depth; it must be installed at

unit installation. For shipment, the convenience outlet is

covered with a blank cover plate.

The weatherproof cover kit is shipped in the unit’s control

box. The kit includes the hinged cover, a backing plate

and gasket.

Non--unit powered type: This type requires the field

installation of a general--purpose 125--volt 15--A circuit

powered from a source elsewhere in the building. Observe

national and local codes when selecting wire size, fuse or

breaker requirements and disconnect switch size and

location. Route 125--v power supply conductors into the

bottom of the utility box containing the duplex receptacle.

Unit--powered type: A unit--mounted transformer is

factory--installed to stepdown the main power supply

voltage to the unit to 115--v at the duplex receptacle. This

option also includes a manual switch with fuse, located in

a control box and mounted on a bracket behind the

convenience outlet; access is through the unit’s control

box access panel. See Fig. 26.

The primary leads to the convenience outlet transformer

are not factory--connected. If local codes permit, the

transformer primary leads can be connected at the

line--side terminals on the unit--mounted non--fused

disconnect switch; this will provide service power to the

unit when the unit disconnect switch is open. See Fig. 28.
