ConneCTInG plasTIC pedesTal aC maIn poWer ........................
The ACC Pedestal controller can operate with either 120
VAC or 230 VAC power.
Supply wires must be 14AWG (2 mm) or larger.
The controller power must be connected to a branch circuit
protected by a 15 A rated over-current protective device
(circuit breaker, fuse, etc).
With the main AC power OFF, route the AC power wires from
the supply panel through the sweep elbow placed for this
purpose in the concrete pad.
Do not route low voltage wiring with the AC power wires in
the same conduit.
Locate the junction box below the transformer assembly on
the left side of the controller. The AC power connections are
made to the terminal block inside this junction box.
Route the AC power lines through conduit (if applicable)
into the junction box.
All connections are to be made by qualified electrical
personnel, only. Local electrical codes must be followed
and may vary, depending upon country, state, and local
codes.

120 VAC COnneCtIOn
Place the Voltage Selector Switch in the "115V" position.
Connect the incoming black (or "hot") wire to the Red wire
from the controller transformer. The Red wire is labeled
Hot, Phase, and Active. Connect either with the supplied
terminal block, or with approved high voltage electrical
wire nuts. If using wire nuts, tape the connection securely
with electrical tape.
Connect the incoming white wire (neutral) to the blue wire
from the controller transformer (labeled "Neutral"), either
with the terminal block or approved wire nuts. If using
wire nuts, tape securely.
The green or bare copper safety ground is not required
with this UL listed floating ground, double-insulated
transformer. If desired, you may connect it to the earth
ground lug on the controller. Install a conduit junction
T-box below the supplied junction box in the controller,
and route the safety ground out of the T to the earth
ground lug of the controller.
230 VAC COnneCtIOn
Place the Voltage Selector Switch in the "230V" position.
Connect the incoming Brown power wire to the Red wire
from the controller transformer, with the supplied terminal
block. The Red wire is labeled Hot, Phase, and Active.
Connect the incoming Blue power wire to the Blue wire
from the controller transformer at the terminal block. The
Blue wire is labeled Neutral.
The green, or green-and-yellow safety ground may not be
required or permitted with this floating ground, double-
insulated transformer. If desired and permitted, connect it
to the earth ground lug on the controller. Install a conduit
junction T-box below the supplied junction box in the
controller, and route the safety ground out of the T to the
earth ground lug of the controller.
Place the connections up into the junction box through the
opening in the bottom. Secure conduit if applicable.
Turn breaker power on, then turn the controller power
switch on and test.
The controller is equipped with a 6 x 20 mm, 250V, 2 Amp
fast-blow fuse on the transformer assembly. Incorrect
power wiring may cause this fuse to open. Check wiring and
incoming power if the fuse opens when power is turned on.
