WIRING
All wiring should be done by a qualified electrician and
shall be in compliance with all local, city and state building
codes. Before making the electrical connection, make sure
that main power supply is disconnected. The appliance,
when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance
with local codes, with the National Electrical Code ANSI/
NFPA 70 (Latest Edition).
The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes,
with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, if an external
electrical source is utilized. This appliance is equipped with
a three-prong [grounding] plug for your protection against
shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly
grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the
grounding prong from this plug. For an ungrounded receptacle,
an adapter, which has two prongs and a wire for grounding, can be
purchased, plugged into the ungrounded receptacle and its wire
connected to the receptacle mounting screw. With this wire com-
pleting the ground, the appliance cord plug can be plugged into the
adapter and be electrically grounded.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls.
Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation.
Verify proper operation after servicing.
NOTICE: The junction box must be pre-wired at time of fireplace
installation for use with blower assembly. A standard wall ON/OFF
wall switch or optional SCV1 Variable Speed Control Kit should be
installed to activate power to the fireplace, and control the operation
of the FBB5 Blower assembly. It is recommended that installation
of the wiring be performed by a qualified electrician. See figure 1.
