FACTORY OPTION THRU-BASE CONNECTIONS

This service connection kit consists of a
3
bulkhead connector and a /
connected to an "L" bracket covering the embossed (raised)
section of the unit basepan in the condenser section (see
Fig. 31 for shipping position). The
enables the low-voltage control wires to pass through the
1
basepan. The / -in. bulkhead connector allows the high-
2
voltage power wires to pass through the basepan. See Fig. 32
and 33.

1. Remove the "L" bracket assembly from the unit.
2. Remove connector plate assembly from the "L" bracket
and discard the "L" bracket, but retain the washer head
screws and the gasket (located between the "L" bracket
and the connector plate assembly).
NOTE: Take care not to damage the gasket, as it is reused in the
following step.
3. Place the gasket over the embossed area in the basepan,
aligning the holes in the gasket to the holes in the basepan.
See Fig. 31.
4. Install the connector plate assembly to the basepan using 8
of the washer head screws.
NOTE: If electrical connections are not going to occur at this time,
tape or otherwise cover the fittings so that moisture does not get
into the building or conduit in the interim.
Check tightness of connector lock nuts before connecting elec-
trical conduits.
Field-supplied and
connectors and conduit may be attached to the connectors on
the basepan. Pull correctly rated high voltage and low voltage
through appropriate conduits. Connect the power conduit to the
internal disconnect (if unit is so equipped) or to the external
disconnect (through unit side panel). Remove one of the two
knockouts located on the bottom left side of the unit control
box. Use this hole for the control conduit.
