Filter Installation; Field Installed Power Wiring; Main Unit Power; Standard Wiring - Trane Foundation GBC Series Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual

A condensate trap must be installed at the unit due to
the drain connection being on the "negative pressure"
side of the fan.
A condensate drain line must be connected to the P-
Trap. Pitch the drain lines at least 0.5-inch for every 10
feet of horizontal run to assure proper condensate flow.
Do not allow the horizontal run to sag causing a
possible doubletrap condition which could result in
condensate backup due to "air lock".

Filter Installation

Each unit ships with 2-inch filters installed. The
quantity of filters is determined by unit size. Access to
the filters is obtained by removing the filter access
panel.
N N o o t t e e : : Do not operate the unit without filters.

Field Installed Power Wiring

An overall dimensional layout for the standard field
installed wiring entrance into the unit is illustrated in
"Unit Weights," p. 13. To insure the unit's supply
power wiring is properly sized and installed, follow the
guidelines outlined below.
N N o o t t e e : : All field installed wiring must conform to NEC
guidelines as well as state and Local codes.
Verify that the power supply available is compatible
with the unit's nameplate ratings. The available supply
power must be within 10 percent of the rated voltage
stamped on the nameplate. Use only copper
conductors to connect the power supply to the unit.

Standard Wiring

The electrical service must be protected from over
current and short circuit conditions in accordance with
NEC requirements.
Protection devices must be sized according to the
electrical data on the nameplate.
• A field supplied disconnect switch must be installed
at or near the unit in accordance with the National
Electrical Code (NEC latest edition).
• Location of the applicable electrical service
entrance is illustrated in
Complete the unit's power wiring connections onto
either; the main terminal block inside the unit
control panel, or the electric heat terminal block.
Refer to the customer connection diagram that
shipped with the unit for specific termination
points.
• Provide proper grounding for the unit in accordance
with local and national codes.

Control Power Transformer

The 24-volt control power transformers are to be used
only with the accessories called out in this manual.

Controls using 24 Vac

Before installing any connecting wiring, refer to
Weights," p. 13 for the electrical access locations
provided on the unit and for AC conductor sizing
guidelines.
