MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
12 VOLTS D.C.
A. Applicable to following models: S W I P D , S W I G D . S W I P D E , S W I 6 D E .
S W I P D E M and S W I G D E M .
B. Refer to Figure 2 for location of D.C. junction box on models S W I P D .
SW IGD. SW 12DE and SW IGDE. Refer to Figure 5 for location of D.C. junction
box on modelSW l 2 D E M or SW IGDEM.
C. The electricalconnections must b e m a d e in accordance with local codes and
regulations. In the absence of local codes and regulations, refer to the latest
edition of the National Electrical Code ANSI\NFPA No. 70.
In Canada, the electrical installation should conform with CSA standard CSA
C22.2 No. 14812240.6.2 Electrical Requirements for Recreational Vehicles and
CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part 1 when installing the unit in
recreational vehicles and mobile homes respectively.
D. Make the 12 Volt D.C. electrical connections following the wiring diagram
illustrated in Figure 7.
If the power supply is to be from a convertor, we recommend that the converter
system be wired in parallel with the battery. This will serve two purposes:
1.
Provide a constant voltage supply
2. Filter any A.C. spikes or volt surges
W e recommend insulated terminals b e used for all electrical connections.

D. Check rating plate and wiring diagram (Figure 8) before proceeding. Install
a fused safety switch or circuit breaker of adequate capacity between heater
and electrical power source. Attach the black and white wires from the fused
switch or breaker to corresponding colored wires in heaterjunction box. A green
