WIRING
Disconnect the power supply before connecting wiring to 
prevent electrical shock or equipment damage. 
All wiring must comply with local codes and ordinances. 
Connections to the individual valves are shown in Fig. 8-
9. See Fig. 10 through 16 for typical hookups. 
If replacing a Taco, Dole, Flair or White Rodgers 3-wire 
valve with a 2-wire V8043E or F, see Fig. 17 through 29. 
Check that the pressure rating of the new valve is 
appropriate for the application.
