ELECTRICAL DATA
Be sure that your outlet matches the appropriate
blade configuration of the supplied plug and that it is
within reach of the service cord. A hardwire kit is
available as an accessory to change cord-connected
units to hardwired units. (See Accessories table on
page 14.)
ALL UNITS
WIRE SIZE —
Use recommended wire size given in
Table 1 and install a single branch circuit. All wiring
must comply with local and national codes. All units
are designed to operate off single branch cir-
cuits only.
NOTE: Use copper conductors only.
GROUNDING
— For safety and protection, the unit
is grounded through the service cord plug or through
separate ground wire provided on hardwired units. Be
sure that the branch circuit or general purpose outlet
is grounded.

VOLTAGE SUPPLY
Check voltage supply at outlet. For satisfactory re-
sults, the voltage range must always be within the
ranges found on the data information plate
(Figure 1).
CORD-CONNECTED UNITS
— The 250-v field-
supplied outlet must match the plug for the standard
208/230-v units and be within reach of the service
cord. The standard cord-connected 265-v units require
an accessory electrical subbase for operation. See
Accessories table, page 14, for subbase selection. Refer
to Table 2 for proper receptacle and fuse type.

extension cord. Personal injury or damage to the
unit may result.
