Silvia PID Installation Guide
Note that the red/white DC control wires, the black power supply wires, and the brown
thermocouple wire are all routed out of the boiler compartment below the steam supply
tube. Eventually, all of these new wires, along with a green ground wire, will be wire-
tied to Silvia's main power cable. All of our new wires will exit the boiler compartment
at the same location as Silvia's power cable.
Step A16 – Install ground wire
Looking from the rear of the machine, locate the grounding terminal and wires fastened
to the base of the boiler. Generally, these wires are green, or green/yellow. See photo
below.
While you are doing this, make sure that the existing ground wire and terminal are not
rusted or corroded. If so, you will need to make some repairs.
WARNING:
A reliable ground is an absolute necessity for the safe installation of
the enclosure included with this kit.
Carefully loosen and remove one of the push-on connections as shown, and then install
the remaining splitter that is included in your kit.
