Electrical Connection

Make sure the household breaker is shut off prior to working on any electrical lines.
The fireplace must be properly grounded in accordance with local codes (or ANSI/NFPA 70-1987)
The electrical line must be grounded and supply 120 Volts at 60 Hz (2 Amps)
Follow the directions below to connect power to the fireplace.
Feed the electrical line
through the strain
relief.
1
Remove the junction box cover at the right front corner of the fireplace near the base.
2
Feed the electrical line through the strain relief (use insulated Romex (®) type wire).
3
Remove the wires from the junction box. Expose approximately 1/2" of metal wire from each line of
the electrical line. Use wire nuts to secure the wires together. Connect the green wire to the ground
wire (usually green), the white wire to the common wire (usually white), and black wire to the hot wire
(usually black).
N O T E :
If using a thermostat or remote control , route the wire through the junction box along
with the electrical line - see the section "Optional Equipment".
4
Push the wire connections into the junction box. Replace the cover plate.
5
Tighten the strain relief on to the outer insulation of the electrical line to secure.
