Fig. 24 — Condensate Drain Pan Piping Details
All units must have an external trap for condensate drain-
age. Install a trap at least 4 in. (102 mm) deep and protect
against freeze-up. If drain line is installed downstream from
the external trap, pitch the line away from the unit at 1 in. per
10 ft (25 mm per 3 m) of run. Do not use a pipe size smaller
than the unit connection ( /

Step 13 — Make Electrical Connections
WARNING
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury
or death.
Do not use gas piping as an electrical ground. Unit cabinet
must have an uninterrupted, unbroken electrical ground to
minimize the possibility of personal injury if an electrical
fault should occur. This ground may consist of electrical wire
connected to unit ground lug in control compartment, or con-
duit approved for electrical ground when installed in accor-
dance with NEC (National Electrical Code); ANSI/NFPA 70,
latest edition (in Canada, Canadian Electrical Code CSA
[Canadian Standards Association] C22.1), and local electri-
cal codes.
NOTE: Field-supplied wiring shall conform with the limitations
of minimum 63°F (33°C) rise.

FIELD POWER SUPPLY

If equipped with optional Powered Convenience Outlet,
the power source leads to the convenience outlet's transform-
er primary are not factory connected. Installer must connect
these leads according to required operation of the conve-
nience outlet. If an always-energized convenience outlet op-
eration is desired, connect the source leads to the line side of
the unit-mounted disconnect. (Check with local codes to en-
sure this method is acceptable in your area.) If a de-energize
via unit disconnect switch operation of the convenience outlet
is desired, connect the source leads to the load side of the unit
disconnect. On a unit without a unit-mounted disconnect,
connect the source leads to compressor contactor C and in-
door fan contactor IFC pressure lugs with unit field power
leads. See Convenience Outlets on page 18 for power trans-
former connections.
The field power wires are connected to the unit at line-side
pressure lugs on compressor contactor C and indoor fan con-
tactor IFC (see wiring diagram label for control box compo-
nent arrangement) or at factory-installed option non-fused
disconnect switch or HACR. Maximum wire size is #2ga
AWG (copper only) per pole on contactors and #2ga AWG
(copper only) per pole on optional disconnect or HACR. See
Fig. 25 and unit label diagram for field power wiring
connections.

NOTE: Unit may be equipped with short test leads (pigtails) on
the field line connection points on contactor C or optional dis-
connect switch. These leads are for factory-run test purposes on-
ly; remove and discard before connecting field power wires to
unit connection points. Make field power connections directly to
line connection pressure lugs only.
Failure to follow this caution could result in fire, intermittent
operation, or unsatisfactory performance.
Do not connect aluminum wire between disconnect switch
and air conditioning unit. Use only copper wire. See Fig. 26.

The factory-installed option non-fused disconnect (NFD)
switch is located in a weatherproof enclosure located under
the main control box. The manual switch handle and shaft are
shipped in the disconnect enclosure. Assemble the shaft and
handle to the switch at this point. Discard the factory test
leads (see Fig. 25).
