Wiring - Quadra-Fire VILLAGE COLLECTION Installation & Operating Instructions Manual

Note:
This heater must be electrically wired and grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes,
with National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition or
the Canadian Electric Code, CSA C2.1 as appropriate.
All wiring must be done by a qualified electrician.
Use appropriate wire to meet local and national
codes for rated power consumption.
1. Fireplace
a. The heater is wired from the factory with a polarized plug.
No provisions have been made for hard wiring.
b. For ease of electrical hook up, you may wish to install
the heater near an existing outlet. A 15 amp, 120 volt
circuit is required. A dedicated circuit is preferred but not
essential in all cases. A dedicated circuit will be required
if, after installation, the circuit trips or fuse blows on a
regular basis when the heater is operated. Additional
appliances on the same circuit may exceed the current
rating of the circuit breaker.
c. Before plugging the heater into the wall outlet, make sure
the control switch is in the "OFF" position.
d. If the cord does not reach the outlet, a No. 16-AWG
minimum wire size extension cord rated for a minimum
of 1875 watts may be used.
Note:
Electrical wiring must be installed by a licensed
electrician.
Disconnect remote controls if you are absent for
extended periods of time. This will prevent
accidental operation of the heater.
