Electrical Information

A. Recommendation for Wire
This appliance requires 110-120 VAC be wired to the junc-
tion box for proper operation of the appliance (Intellifi re
ignition).
Note: This appliance must be electrically wired and grounded
in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local
codes, with National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70-latest
edition or the Canadian Electric Code, CSA C221.1.
B. Connecting to the Appliance
WARNING
Wire 110V to electrical junction box.
Do NOT wire 110V to valve.
Do NOT wire 110V to wall switch.
• Incorrect wiring will damage millivolt valves.
• Incorrect wiring will override IPI safety lock-
out and may cause explosion.
• This appliance may be used with a wall switch, wall
mounted thermostat and/or a remote control.
• If using thermostat use one compatible with a millivolt
gas valve system.
• Follow parameters for locating thermostat (see individ-
ual thermostat instructions) to ensure proper operation
of appliance.
• Use low resistance thermostat wire for wiring from igni-
tion system to the wall switch and thermostat.
• Keep wire lengths short as possible by removing any
excess wire length.
• Low voltage and 110 VAC voltage cannot be shared
within the same wall box.
C. Intellifi re Ignition System Wiring
This appliance requires a 110 VAC supply to the appliance
junction box for operation. A wiring diagram is shown in
Figure 10.1.
This appliance is equipped with an Intellifi re control valve
which operates on a 3 volt system.
This appliance is supplied with a battery pack and a 3 volt
AC transformer, which requires the installation of the sup-
plied junction box. It is highly recommended that the junc-
tion box be installed at this time to avoid reconstruction.
The battery pack requires two D cell batteries (not in-
cluded).
NOTE: Batteries cannot be placed in the battery pack
while using the 3 volt AC transformer. The transformer
must be unplugged if the battery pack is used or battery
life will be reduced.
Wiring to the battery pack is left disconnected in order
to conserve battery life. In the case of a loss of power,
simply connect red and black wire leads to activate bat-
tery power (connect red to red, black to black). The fi re-
place can be used as necessary. Once power (110 VAC)
is restored, disconnect red and black wire leads to extend
battery life.
Optional Accessories Requirements
Wiring for optional accessories should be done now to
avoid reconstruction.
D. Wall Switch (Required)
A wall switch must be installed of this fi replace. This will
allow the unit to operate if the power goes out (battery
operation).
Position the wall switch in the desired position on the
wall. An assembly of 18 ft of 20 AWG is provided with
the appliance to connect the wall switch to the appliance.
Instead of the supplied assembly, wire with a length of
25 ft or less and a gauge of 20 AWG through 14 AWG is
acceptable. The wire needs a jacket with a temperature
rating of 140
the wire to the ON/OFF switch pigtails.
