HARDWIRING THE ELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS:
Wiring should be carried out by a
qualified electrician in accordance with
local codes.
The water heater requires 120 VAC/60Hz
and should be properly grounded.
DO NOT connect grounding wire to
water pipes, gas pipes, telephone
cables, lightning conductor circuits and
to grounding circuit of other equipment
that carry a ground-fault interrupter.
An ON/OFF switch must be provided
and installed for the incoming
120VAC power.
Wire the water heater exactly as shown
below. A wiring diagram is also found
inside of the cover panel.
A green screw is provided in the
junction box for grounding connection.
Connect the live wire to black leg wire
and the neutral wire to the white neutral
wire.
WARNING: Shock
hazard line voltage is
present. Before servicing
the water heater, turn off
the electrical power to the
water heater at the main
disconnect or circuit
breaker. Failure to do so
could result in severe
personal injury or death.
CAUTION: Label all
wires prior to
disconnection when
servicing controls. Wiring
errors can cause improper
and dangerous operation.
Verify correct operation
after servicing.
