If local codes do not permit the use of
cord connections, a 120 V, 50/60 Hz
power supply, with suitable disconnecting
means, must be connected to the black and
white leads in the heater control enclosure.
A knock-out hole is provided to permit use
of conduit or metal-clad cable connectors.
The maximum current draw is
approximately 5.0 amps.
