ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death and/or
property damage.
DO NOT alter cord or plug or use an extension cord.
POWER CONNECTION OPTIONS
Amperage and voltage of the PTAC and branch circuit must match according to local cord.
If the unit is to be hard wired, an accessory hard wire kit must be ordered.
ALL UNITS
Wire Size
Use recommended wire size given in Table 1 and install a single branch circuit. All wiring must comply with

Grounding
For safety and protection, the unit is grounded through the service cord plug or through separate ground
wire provided on hard wired units. Be sure that the branch circuit or general purpose outlet is grounded.
VOLTAGE SUPPLY
Check voltage supply at outlet. For satisfactory results, the voltage range must always be within the ranges
found on the data information plate.
Cord - connected Units
The 250-V field supplied outlet must match the plug for the standard 208/230-V units and be within reach of
the service cord. The standard cord-connected 265-V units require an accessory electrical subbase for
operation. Refer to Table 2 for proper receptacle and fuse type.
Power Cord Protection
The power cord for 230/208V units provide power cord fire protection. Unit power automatically
disconnects when unsafe conditions are detected. Power to the unit can be restored by pressing
the reset button on plug head.
Upon completion of unit installation for 230/208V models, an operational check should be performed
using the TEST/RESET buttons on the plug head.
NOTE: The 265V models do not incorporate this feature as they require use of an electrical sub-base.
