Electrical Connection Requirements

!
The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the absence
of local codes with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70; or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1
!
The electrical line must be installed by a qualified installer and must meet all local codes. Consult your local
building official for code regulations and recommended procedures.
!
The 24VAC transformer may require a circuit protected by a GFCI (see local building codes).
!
Use a transformer to convert 120VAC power to 24VAC power for the appliance. Supply the transformer with
120VAC at approximately 0.9 amps - make sure the circuit and wiring is appropriately sized. The power supply
must be routed through a switch to turn the appliance on and off (see pg. 45). Multiple Travis Industries, Inc.
24-volt appliances may be placed on a single circuit. Each appliance uses 24VAC at approximately 1.6 amps -
Make sure the circuit and wiring is appropriately sized (see diagrams starting on pg. 21.). If multiple
appliances are powered through a single switch the control modules for each of the individual appliances may
be daisy-chained together.

24VAC Transformer


This appliance must be used with a 24VAC switched circuit. The transformer is sold separately.

Travis Industries offers the following transformer:
-- sku# 94800830 (120v input only with 24v, 26v, and 28v output leads). See the instruction sheet
included with the transformer for details.

Wiring Installation


We recommend outdoor-suitable connectors (silicone-filled wire connectors, dielectric grease, etc.) on the
power-in connections to the control module to prevent corrosion.

Route the wires from the 24VAC transformer to the control module of the appliance using listed wiring.
Make sure to provide slack in the electrical line for removal and service.

Connect the wires from the 24VAC transformer to the White/Yellow and yellow wires on the control module
(polarity does not matter for this connection).

The appliance uses approximately 40 watts during startup (1.6 amps at 24VAC). Make sure the circuit and
wire are sized appropriately. The appliance requires a minimum of 22VAC to operate (if the voltage drops
below this, the appliance may not start).
