After the interior ceiling assembly frame is properly secured to the roof top air conditioner, the following electrical
connections must be performed.
1
Route a copper, with ground, supply wiring with
minimum, #12 AWG from its power source to the
junction box. Do not attach them at this time.
2
Take the roof top air conditioner electrical harness and
plug it into the side of the selector switch control box.
Make sure that the "ridged" side of the plug is aligned
and matched with the "ridged" side of the selector
switch control box connection. DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE
FORCE (See Figure 6).
3
Remove the junction box cover (1 screw). Take the
supply wire and slide it into the side of the junction box
Figure 6
through the strain relief that is provided.
WHEN USING INSULATED CABLES, STRIP THE OUTER JACKET
BACK TO EXPOSE 4-6 INCHES OF THE INSULATED LEADS. STRIP
THE INDIVIDUAL WIRE LEAD ENDS FOR THE CONNECTION.
(EXPOSE ABOUT 3/4" OF BARE WIRE.) THEN TIGHTEN UP ON
THE CABLE. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN! THIS COULD RESULT IN
PINCHING THROUGH THE PLASTIC WIRE INSULATION AND
CAUSE A SHORT OR "HOT" WIRES. (YOU COULD GET
SHOCKED.) THE CLAMP IS INTENDED FOR STRAIN RELIEF OF
THE WIRES, AND SLIGHT PRESSURE IS USUALLY SUFFICIENT TO
ACCOMPLISH THIS.
IF INSULATED CABLE IS NOT AVAILABLE, APPROPRIATE STRAIN
RELIEF CONNECTORS OR CLAMPS SHOULD BE USED.
THERE SHOULD BE NO CLAMPING OR PINCHING APPLIED TO
THE INDIVIDUAL SUPPLY LEADS.

Connect the power line to the black, white and ground
wires found in the junction box using three wire
connectors. CAUTION! - Connect black wire to black
wire, white wire to white wire and ground wire to ground
wire (green to bare copper). Using UL approved
Figure 8
electrician's tape, secure the wire connectors in a
workmanlike manner (See Figure 7).
5
Tighten the strain relief clamp to secure the supply wire.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN (See Figure 8).
Reinstall the junction box cover.
