TEST LEADS - Unit may be equipped with short leads (pig-
tails) on the field line connection points off the optional dis-
connect switch. These leads are for factory run-test purpos-
es only; remove and discard before connecting field power
wires to unit connection points. Make field power connec-
tions directly to line connection pressure lugs only.

FIELD WIRING

All field wiring must comply with the NEC and local
requirements.
All units except 208/230-v units are factory wired for the
voltage shown on the nameplate. If the 208/230-v unit is to
be connected to a 208-v power supply, the control trans-
former must be rewired by moving the black wire with the
1/4 in. female spade connector from the 230-v connection
and moving it to the 200-v 1/4 in. male terminal on the pri-
mary side of the transformer. Refer to unit label diagram for
additional information.
Size wire based on MCA (Minimum Circuit Amps) on the
unit informative plate. See Fig. 23 and the unit label diagram
for power wiring connections to the unit power terminal
blocks and equipment ground. Maximum wire size is 2/0
AWG per pole.
Provide a ground-fault and short-circuit over-current protec-
tion device (fuse or breaker) per NEC Article 440 (or local
codes). Refer to unit informative data plate for MOCP (Max-
imum Over-current Protection) device size.
