before attempting installation or service of electrical components or connections of the boiler or building.
Lock out all electrical boxes with padlock once power is turned off.
WARNING
All wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with the authority having
jurisdiction or, in the absence of such requirements, with the National Electrical Code /NFPA 70). In
Canada, all wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1
(CSA C22.1 - latest edition).
Failure to properly wire electrical connections to the boiler may result in serious physical harm.
Electrical power may be suppled from more than one circuit. Make sure all power is off before attempting
any electrical work.
Each boiler must be protected with a properly sized over-current device.
Never jump out or make inoperative any safety or operating controls.
The wiring diagrams contained in this manual are for reference purposes only. Each boiler is shipped
with a wiring diagram attached to the front door. Refer to this diagram and the wiring diagram of any
controls used with the boiler. Read, understand and follow all wiring instructions supplied with the
controls.
NOTICE This boiler is equipped with a listed high water temperature limit function. This limit provides
boiler shutdown in the event the boiler water temperature exceeds the set point of the limit control.
Certain Local Codes require an additional water temperature limit. If necessary, install an additional water
temperature limit such as a Honeywell L4006 Aquastat. Wire as indicated in Figure 10.3.
Figure 10.1 shows the location of both the high voltage and low voltage printed circuit boards with terminal strips for
field wiring. To access the PCB's, first remove the sheet metal screw used to secure the wiring compartment
cover and then lift out the cover.

Line Voltage (120 VAC) Field Connections – See Figure 10.2 for line voltage connections. Provide a
dedicated circuit for the boiler of 15A or greater. A service switch is recommended and is required by many
local codes. Locate this switch in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of any, in a location where
it can be safely accessed in an emergency involving the boiler. All 120VAC connections to the boiler itself are
made on the terminal strip on the high voltage PCB located on the left side if the wiring compartment. From
top to bottom, the connections on the terminal strip are:
120VAC Hot
120VAC Neutral
Ground
System Pump Hot
