ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD)
Precautions and Procedures
Electrostatic discharge can affect electronic components.
Take precautions during furnace installation and service
to protect the furnace's electronic controls. Precautions
will help to avoid control exposure to electrostatic
discharge by putting the furnace, the control and the
technician at the same electrostatic potential. Neutralize
electrostatic charge by touching hand and all tools on
an unpainted unit surface, such as the gas valve or
blower deck, before performing any service procedure.
The unit is equipped with a field make-up box on the left
hand side of the cabinet. The make-up box may be moved
to the right side of the furnace to facilitate installation. If
the make-up box is moved to the right side, clip the wire
ties that bundle the wires together. The excess wire must
be pulled into the blower compartment. Secure the excess
wire to the existing harness to protect it from damage.

CAUTION
Figure 22. Interior Make-Up Box Installation
Refer to Figure 24 for schematic wiring diagram and
troubleshooting and Figure 25 for field wiring.
The power supply wiring must meet Class I restrictions.
Protected by either a fuse or circuit breaker, select circuit
protection and wire size according to unit nameplate.
NOTE: Unit nameplate states maximum current draw.
Maximum over current protection allowed is 15 AMP.
Holes are on both sides of the furnace cabinet to facilitate
wiring.
Install a separate (properly sized) disconnect switch near
the furnace so that power can be turned off for servicing.
Before connecting the thermostat, check to make sure the
wires will be long enough for servicing at a later date. Make
sure that thermostat wire is long enough to facilitate future
removal of blower for service.
Complete the wiring connections to the equipment. Use the
provided unit wiring diagram and the field wiring diagram
shown in Figure 25. Use 18 gauge wire or larger that is
suitable for Class II rating for thermostat connections.
Electrically ground the unit according to local codes or,
in the absence of local codes, according to the current
National Electric Code (ANSI/NFPA No. 70). A green
ground wire is provided in the field make-up box.
NOTE: This furnace contains electronic components that
are polarity sensitive. Make sure that the furnace is wired
correctly and is properly grounded.
