The wiring harness is an integral part of this furnace. Wires
are color coded for identification purposes. Refer to the wiring
diagram for wire routings. If any of the original wire as sup-
plied with the furnace must be replaced, it must be replaced
with wiring material having a temperature rating of at least
105° C. Any replacement wiring must be a copper conductor.

ONNECTIONS
Before proceeding with electrical connections, ensure that the
supply voltage, frequency, and phase correspond to that speci-
fied on the unit rating plate. Power supply to the furnace must
be NEC Class 1, and must comply with all applicable codes. The
furnace must be electrically grounded in accordance with local
codes or, in their absence, with the latest edition of The Na-
tional Electric Code, ANSI NFPA 70 and/or The Canadian Electric
Code CSA C22.1.
Use a separate fused branch electrical circuit containing prop-
erly sized wire, and fuse or circuit breaker. The fuse or circuit
breaker must be sized in accordance with the maximum
overcurrent protection specified on the unit rating plate. An
electrical disconnect must be provided at the furnace location.
Connect hot, neutral, and ground wires as shown in the wiring
diagram located on the unit's blower door. For direct vent ap-
plications, the cabinet opening to the junction box must be
sealed air tight using either an UL approved bushing such as
Heyco Liquid Tight or by applying non-reactive UL approved
sealant to bushing.
Line polarity must be observed when making field connections.
Line voltage connections can be made through either the right
or left side panel. The furnace is shipped configured for a left
side electrical connection with the junction box located inside
the burner compartment. To make electrical connections through

the opposite side of the furnace, the junction box must be
relocated to the other side of the burner compartment prior to
making electrical connections. To relocate the junction box,
follow the steps shown below.
NOTE: Wire routing must not to interfere with circulator blower
operation, filter removal, or routine maintenance.

Line voltage connections can be made through either the
right or left side panel. The furnace is shipped configured
for a left side electrical connection. To make electrical con-
nections through the opposite side of the furnace, the junc-
tion box must be relocated to the left side prior to making
electrical connections. To relocate the junction box, per-
form the following steps.
1. Remove the burner compartment door.
2. Remove and save the two screws securing the junction
box to the side panel.
3. Relocate junction box and associated plugs and grommets
to opposite side panel. Secure with screws removed in
step 2.
To ensure proper unit grounding, the ground wire should run
from the furnace ground screw located inside the furnace junc-
tion box all the way back to the electrical panel. NOTE: Do not
use gas piping as an electrical ground. To confirm proper unit
grounding, turn off the electrical power and perform the follow-
ing check.
1. Measure resistance between the neutral (white) connection
and one of the burners.
2. Resistance should measure 10 ohms or less.
This furnace is equipped with a blower door interlock switch which
interrupts unit voltage when the blower door is opened for ser-
vicing. Do not defeat this switch.
