A-Series controller communication cables
Wired water controllers operate at an extra low voltage (12 V DC) which is supplied from the water
heater, a 10 m long communication cable is supplied for connection to the water heater. Only
Rinnai supplied communication cables may be used.
The water heater end of the cables is tted with spade terminals. Only two pairs of cables (four
spade connectors in total) may be terminated. When attaching three or four cables it is necessary
to join the cable terminators as shown below.
For each pair cut o󰀨 the existing spade connectors and re-terminate each pair into a new spade
connector (A). Spade connectors are available from your local electrical component retailer
