3. CONNECT WIRING
General instructions for all configurations:
Make sure both the switch box and the appliance are
properly grounded.
Make sure ground wire is securely fastened to rocker
switch's ground screw. Tighten ground screw 14 to
16-in. lbs. torque.
Remove insulation, approx. 5/8 inch. Use proper
wire nut sizes for number and size of wires.
For screw terminals: Use #12 or #14-AWG solid
copper wire only. Tighten screw terminals 14 to 16
inch lbs. torque.
For 3-rocker units: Strip wires to length of strip
gauge on the back of the switch. Connect wires per
the FIGURE #3 wiring diagram.
For 2 rocker units: Connect wires per either the
FIGURE #1 wiring diagram (two single pole switches
on the same circuit) or the FIGURE #2 wiring diagram
(two single pole switches on separate circuits). With
either method, each single pole switch controls an
independent function.
NOTE: For separate feed (FIGURE #2) operation
only: The break-off tab located between the black
screws should be removed before wiring. Using a
standard slotted screwdriver, move the screwdriver
up and down in the vertical direction until the tab
breaks off.
