unconditioned spaces

All ductwork passing through unconditioned space must be

properly insulated to prevent condensation and minimize

duct losses. Use insulation with an outer vapor barrier.

Refer to local codes for insulation material requirements.

acoustical Ductwork

Certain installations may require acoustical lining inside

the supply ductwork. Acoustical insulation must be in

accordance with the current revision of the Sheet Metal

and Air Conditioning Contractors National Association

(SMACNA) application standard for duct liners. Duct lining

must be UL classified batts or blankets with a fire hazard

classification of FHC-25/50 or less.

Fiber ductwork may be used in place of internal duct liners

if the fiber ductwork is in accordance with the current

revision of the SMACNA construction standard on fibrous

glass ducts.

Fibrous ductwork and internal acoustical lining must be

NFPA Class 1 air ducts when tested per UL Standard 181

for Class 1 ducts.

Downflow to Horizontal conversion

The unit is shipped ready for downflow duct connections. If

horizontal ducts are required, the unit must be converted

according to the directions in the conversion kit for both

the supply and return ducts.

Line Voltage

It is recommended that the line voltage to the unit be

supplied from a dedicated branch circuit containing the

correct fuse or circuit breaker for the unit.
IMPortant notE: an electrical disconnect must

be installed readily accessible from and located

within sight of the unit. (see unit data label for proper

incoming field wiring). any other wiring methods

must be acceptable to authority having jurisdiction.
The power supply for the unit must be in accordance with

the unit wiring diagram, and the unit rating plate. Connect

the line-voltage leads to the corresponding terminals on

the terminal block inside the element access compartment.

Refer to Figure 10 for compartment location. Use only

copper wire for the line voltage power supply to this unit. If

using conduit to bring in supply wiring to the unit, use only

UL listed or recognized conduit and conduit connections.

All Q6SP model units are shipped factory ready for Single

Circuit Electrical Supply connections. See Tables 2a, 2b,

3 or the unit rating label for proper high voltage wiring

requirements. For Dual Electrical Supply connections see

unit rating plate or heater kit installation instructions for

proper high voltage wiring requirements. Use NORDYNE

P/N-917468 Pole Dual Circuit Adaptor for converting to

dual supply connections.

cautIon:

label all wires prior to disconnection when
servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause
improper and dangerous operation. Verify
proper operation after servicing.

Units are shipped from the factory wired for 230 or 460 volt

operation. On 208 - 230V units being placed into 208 volt

operation, remove the lead from the transformer terminal

marked 240V and connect it to the terminal marked 208V.

Overcurrent protection must be provided at the branch

circuit distribution panel and sized as shown on the unit

rating label and according to the National Electric Code

and applicable local codes.

notE: See the unit rating plate

for maximum circuit ampacity and maximum overcurrent

protection limits.
notE: 1-3/8” conduit openings are supplied for high

voltage field wiring entrance. If smaller openings are

required use suitable (field supplied) reducers to meet

specific conduit size requirements.

Grounding

WarnInG:

the unit cabinet must have an uninterrupted or

unbroken electrical ground to minimize personal
injury if an electrical fault should occur. Do not
use gas piping as an electrical ground

ElEctrIcal WIrInG

WarnInG:

to avoid the risk of electrical shock, personal
injury, or death, disconnect all electrical power
to the unit before performing any maintenance
or service. the unit may have more than one
electrical power supply.

• Electrical connections must be in compliance with all

applicable local codes and ordinances, and with the
current revision of the National Electric Code (ANSI/
NFPA 70).

• For Canadian installations the electrical connections

and grounding shall comply with the current Canadian
Electrical Code (CSA C22.1 and/or local codes).

Pre-Electrical checklist

√ Verify that the voltage, frequency, and phase of the

supply source match the specifications on the unit
rating plate.

√ Verify that the service provided by the utility is sufficient

to handle the additional load imposed by this equipment.
See Tables 2a-2b (page 17), Table 3 (page 18) or the
unit wiring label for proper high and low voltage wiring.

√ Verify factory wiring is in accordance with the unit wiring

diagram. Inspect for loose connections.

√ For 3 phase units always check the phase balance as

shown on page 8
