requires a dry, protected environment.
• The BAS-1P is rated for maximum ambient temperature of 40°C
• Do not allow any metal shavings or debris from installation to enter enclosure.

Main Power Wiring

Wire main power input and output to the appropriate 12AWG wire leads utilizing
properly sized wire nuts. Use only copper conductors rated at least 60°C.
Maintain proper clearances and verify that no possibility of an electrical short
exists between the power conductors or enclosure. Ensure that wires are not
under stress and all insulation is intact.

Low Voltage Wiring

Automation system control wiring should be run in a separate conduit. The
control terminals accept 26~14AWG wire torqued to 3.5 in-lb.
