Planning Your Installation

230V Single-Phase Without Neutral

For installations without a neutral and 230V
from line to line, connect any two lines (L1, L2,
or L3 in the illustration) to the L1 and neutral
positions on the Wall Connector terminal
block.
230V

230V Three-Phase Without Neutral

Connect the first phase (L1 in the illustration)
to the L1 position on the terminal block.
Connect the next phase (L2 in the illustration)
to the L2 position on the terminal block.
Finally connect the third phase (L3 in the
illustration) to the N position on the terminal
block.

Determine the Circuit Breaker
Requirements
To determine the type of upstream circuit
breaker you need, examine the distribution
panel or circuit breaker box to identify the
amperage available at the installation site.
The Wall Connector has an internal rotary
switch that allows you to adjust its operating
L1
current (refer to Set the Operating Current on
page 19). The circuit breaker should be
rated for the continuous current of: 6, 8, 10, 13,
L2
16, 20, 25, or 32A.
