CONVENIENCE OUTLETS
WARNING
ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury or death.
Units with convenience outlet circuits may use multiple
disconnects. Check convenience outlet for power status
before opening unit for service. Locate its disconnect
switch, if appropriate, and open it. Lock-out and tag-out
this switch, if necessary.
Two types of convenience outlets are offered on 569J models:
Non-powered and unit-powered. Both types provide a 125-volt
GFCI (ground-fault circuit-interrupter) duplex receptacle rated
at 15-A behind a hinged waterproof access cover, located on
the end panel of the unit. See Fig. 15.
Non-Powered Type
This type requires the field installation of a general-purpose
125-volt 15-A circuit powered from a source elsewhere in the
building. Observe national and local codes when selecting wire
size, fuse or breaker requirements and disconnect switch size
and location. Route 125-v power supply conductors into the
bottom of the utility box containing the duplex receptacle.
Maximum continuous current for this type of convenience out-
let (non-unit powered) must not exceed 8 Amps.
Unit-Powered Type
A unit-mounted transformer is factory-installed to step down
the main power supply voltage to the unit to 115-v at the du-
plex receptacle. This option also includes a manual switch with
fuse, located in a utility box and mounted on a bracket behind
the convenience outlet; access is through the unit's control box
access panel. See Fig. 15.

The primary leads to the convenience outlet transformer are
not factory-connected. Selection of primary power source is a
customer-option. If local codes permit, the transformer primary
leads can be connected at the line-side terminals on the unit-
mounted non-fused disconnect switch; this will provide service
power to the unit when the unit disconnect switch is open. Oth-
er connection methods will result in the convenience outlet cir-
cuit being de-energized when the unit disconnect switch is
open. See Fig. 16.

The unit-powered convenience outlet has a 1000 VA rated
transformer. Maximum continuous current must not exceed
8 Amps.
Test the GFCI receptacle by pressing the TEST button on the
face of the receptacle to trip and open the receptacle. Check for
proper grounding wires and power line phasing if the GFCI re-
ceptacle does not trip as required. Press the RESET button to
clear the tripped condition.
Fuse on power type: The factory fuse is a Bussman™
tron™"
fuse.

ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury or death.
Using unit-mounted convenience outlets: Units with unit-
mounted convenience outlet circuits will often require that
two disconnects be opened to de-energize all power to the
unit. Treat all units as electrically energized until the
convenience outlet power is also checked and de-
energization is confirmed. Observe National Electrical
Code Article 210, Branch Circuits, for use of convenience
outlets.
Installing Weatherproof Cover
A weatherproof while in use cover for the factory installed
convenience outlets is now required by UL standards. This
cover cannot be factory mounted due its depth; it must be
installed at unit installation. For shipment, the convenience
outlet is covered with a blank cover plate.
