Carrier 160 Series - Electrical Connections

58CV
Install a sediment trap in riser leading to furnace as shown in Fig.
22. Connect a capped nipple into lower end of tee. Capped nipple
should extend below level of furnace gas controls. Place a ground
joint union between furnace gas control vaive and exterior
manual equipment gas shutoff valve.
A 1/8-in. (3 mm) NPT plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge
connection, MUST be installed immediately upstream of gas
supply connection to furnace and downstream of manual
equipment shutoff valve.
Piping should be pressure and leak tested in accordance with the
current addition of the NFGC in the United States, local, and
national plumbing and gas codes before the furnace has been
connected. After all connections have been made, purge lines and
check for leakage at furnace prior to operating furnace.
If pressure exceeds 0.5 psig (14-In. W.C.), gas supply pipe must
be disconnected from furnace and capped before and during
supply pipe pressure test. If test pressure is equal to or less than
0.5 psig (14-In. W.C.), turn off electric shutoff switch located on
furnace gas control valve and accessible manual equipment
shutoff valve before and during supply pipe pressure test. After
all connections have been made, purge lines and check for
leakage at furnace prior to operating furnace.
The gas supply pressure shall be within the maximum and
minimum inlet supply pressures marked on the rating plate with
the furnace burners ON and OFF,

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury or death.
Blower access panel door switch opens 115-v power to
control. No component operation can occur. Do not
bypass or close switch with panel removed.
See Fig. 25 for field wiring diagram showing typical field 115-v
wiring. Check all factory and field electrical connections for
tightness.
Field-supplied wiring shall conform with the limitations of 63°F
(33°C) rise.
4 WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK AND FIRE HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury, death, or property damage.
The cabinet MUST have an uninterrupted or unbroken
ground according to NEC ANSI/NFPA 70-2011 or local
codes to minimize personal injury if an electrical fault
should occur. This may consist of electrical wire, conduit
approved for electrical ground or a listed, grounded power
cord (where permitted by local code) when installed in
accordance with existing electrical codes. Refer to the
power cord manufacturer’s ratings for proper wire gauge.
Do not use gas piping as an electrical ground.
FURNACE MAY NOT OPERATE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in intermittent
furnace operation.
Furnace control must be grounded for proper operation or
else control will lock out. Control must remain grounded
through green/yellow wire routed to gas valve and manifold
bracket screw.
115-V Wiring
Verify that the voltage, frequency, and phase correspond to that
specified on unit rating plate. Also, check to be sure that service
provided by utility is sufficient to handle load imposed by this
equipment. Refer to rating plate or Table 7 for equipment
electrical specifications.
U.S. Installations: Make all electrical connections in accordance
with National Electrical Code (NEC) ANSI/NFPA 70-2011 and
any local codes or ordinances that might apply.
