WARNING
To prevent death, serious personal injury
or property damage due to fire or explosion
caused by a propane gas leak, install a gas
detecting warning device.
WARNING
If the propane gas furnace is installed in a
basement, an excavated area or a confined
space, a warning device is required due to:
Propane gas is heavier than air and any
leaking gas can settle in any low areas
or confined spaces.
Propane gas odorant may fade, making
the gas undetectable except with a
warning device.
If the presence of gas is suspected, follow
the instructions on Page 2 of this manual.
VIl. Electrical Wiring
WARNING
To prevent death or personal injury due to
electric shock, disconnect electrical power
before changing any electrical wiring.
CAUTION
When servicing controls, label all wires
before disconnecting. Wiring errors can
cause improper and dangerous operation.
After servicing is completed, always verify
proper operation.
The unit wiring harness is an integral part of the furnace.
Field alteration to comply with electrical codes should not
be required.
Power supply to the furnace must be NEC Class 1, and
must comply with all applicable codes. The furnace must be
electrically grounded in accordance with the local codes or,
in their absence, with the latest edition of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI NFPA No. 70 and/or the CSA C22. 1
Electrical Code. A fused disconnect must be provided and
sized in accordance with the unit maximum overcurrent
protection.
Figure 20
Typical Field Wiring
(24 VAC Control Circuit)
A 40 VA transformer and an integrated electronic control
are built into the furnace to allow use with most cooling
equipment.
CAUTION
To avoid the risk of electrical shock, wiring
to the unit must be properly polarized and
grounded.
To provide more reliable sensing of flame, the
ground wire
must run to the electrical panel.
Line voltage wiring
must enter into the junction box pro-
vided with the furnace.
As shipped, the junction box is attached to the left side of
the furnace (as viewed for an upflow installation). If this is
suitable for your installation, no changes are necessary.
If the line voltage wiring is to enter through the right side of
the furnace (as viewed for an upflow installation), relocate
the junction box as shown in Figure 21.
