must be used. If other original wiring as supplied with
boiler must be replaced, use only type 105°C wire or
equivalent.
Boiler must be
electrically grounded as required by

pator in thermostat to match power requirements
of equipment connected to it. If connected directly
to boiler, set for 0.1 amps plus gas valve current.
See information on the wiring diagram shown in
Figure 25b, page 39. For other devices, refer to
manufacturer’s specifications. Wiring diagram on

and mount the service switch remotely as required
by the code.
Wiring multiple zones
Refer to zone valve manufacturer’s literature for wiring
and application. A separate transformer is required to
power zone valves. Zoning with circulators requires a
relay for each circulator.
