This component is an electrical device that must be
installed correctly to ensure proper operation and to
prevent shock or fire. Read these important warnings

• To minimize the danger of fire from sustained
electrical arcing if the heating cable is damaged
or improperly installed, and to comply with the
requirements of Tyco Thermal Controls, agency
certifications, and national electrical codes, ground-
fault equipment protection must be used. Arcing may
not be stopped by conventional circuit breakers.
• Bus wires will short if they contact each other. Keep
bus wires separated.
