in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local
codes, with National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70-latest
edition
or the Canadian Electric Code, CSA C221.1.

B. Connecting to the Appliance

Wire 110V to electrical junction box.

Do NOT wire 110V to valve.

Do NOT wire 110V to wall switch.

• Incorrect wiring will damage millivolt valves.

• Incorrect wiring will override IPI safety lockout

and may cause explosion.

C. Intellifi re Ignition System Wiring

This appliance requires a 110 VAC supply to the appliance
junction box for operation. A wiring diagram is shown in
Figure 10.1.

This appliance is equipped with an Intellifi re control valve
which operates on a 3 volt system.

This appliance is supplied with a battery pack and a 3 volt
AC transformer, which requires the installation of the sup-
plied junction box. It is highly recommended that the junc-
tion box be installed at this time to avoid reconstruction.

The battery pack requires two D cell batteries (not included).

CAUTION

Battery polarity must be correct or module damage will
occur.

Optional Accessories Requirements

Wiring for optional accessories should be done now to
avoid reconstruction.

• This appliance may be used with a wall switch, wall

mounted thermostat and/or a remote control.

• If using thermostat use one compatible with a millivolt

gas valve system.

• Follow parameters for locating thermostat (see individual

thermostat instructions) to ensure proper operation of
appliance.

• Use low resistance thermostat wire for wiring from ignition

system to the wall switch and thermostat.

• Keep wire lengths short as possible by removing any

excess wire length.

• Low voltage and 110 VAC voltage cannot be shared

within the same wall box.

WARNING

D. Wall Switch

Position the wall switch in the desired position on the
wall. An assembly of 18 ft of 20 AWG is provided with
the fi replace to connect the wall switch to the appliance.
Instead of the supplied assembly, wire with a length of
25 ft or less and a gauge of 20 AWG through 14 AWG is
acceptable. The wire needs a jacket with a temperature
rating of 140º F (60º C) or higher. At the appliance con-
nect the wire to the ON/OFF switch pigtails.

Note: Batteries cannot be placed in the battery pack while
using the 3 volt AC transformer. The transformer must be
unplugged if the battery pack is used or battery life will
be reduced.

CAUTION

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

Shock hazard.

• Replace damaged wire with type 105º C rated

wire.

• Wire must have high temperature insulation.

WARNING

• A 110-120 VAC circuit for this product must be protected

with ground-fault circuit-interrupter protection, in
compliance with the applicable electrical codes, when
it is installed in locations such as in bathrooms or near
sinks.
