General
Wiring must comply with all applicable codes and ordinances.
McQuay's product warranty does not cover equipment failures
caused or contributed to by wiring not in accordance with
specifications. An open fuse or tripped MMP indicates a short,
ground or overload. Before replacing a fuse or restarting a
compressor or fan motor, locate the trouble and correct. Use
copper wire for all power lead terminations.
A single power terminal block is provided as standard, and
wiring within the unit is done in accordance with UL 508.
Each branch circuit within the control panel is individually
protected. A single field-supplied disconnect is required or a
unit-mounted, nonfused disconnect can be ordered with the
unit.
A 7/8" knockout is located on the right-hand unit upright for
locating unit power entry. 24 V field connections are suitable
for Class II wiring.
Unit Disconnect
Disconnecting means are addressed by Article 440 of the
National Electric Code (NEC), which requires "disconnecting
means capable of disconnecting air conditioning and
refrigerant equipment including motor-compressors, and
controllers, from the circuit feeder." Select and locate the
disconnect switch within the NEC guidelines. Location
requirements per NEC are that the disconnect is located in a
readily accessible position within sight (50 feet) of the unit. A
factory-mounted, nonfused disconnect is available.

Return Air and Outside Air Sensors
All units are provided with a return air sensor. It is connected
to the input control board and is coiled and placed behind the
access panel, to the right of the control panel of the unit for
shipment. Field install it in the return air stream for proper unit
operation. The return air sensor is connected to the unit's input
board at location AI-2.
The outside air sensor is optional and can be ordered with the
unit. It ships loose in a package and is located on the floor of
the fan section. The outside air sensor is field wired to terminal
strip TB2. It is connected at terminals 122 and 123.
The mixed air temperature sensor is already installed at the
inlet of the unit.
Mount the sensors in areas that are exposed to representative
temperature conditions. Mount them at a position that has
good air mixing and does not have stratification. Sensors can
be mounted in the ductwork using a grommet (see Figure 21).
