MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
12 VOLTS D.C.
A. Applicable to following models: SW10D, SW10DE, SW10DM, SW10DEM
SW12D, SW12DE, SW12DEM, SW16D, SW16DE, and SW16DEM.
B. Refer to Figure 2 for location of D.C. junction box on models SW10D
,SW10DE SW12D, SW12DE, SW16D and SW16DE. Refer to Figure 4 and 5 for
location of D.C. junction box on models SW10DM, SW10DEM, SW12DEM and
SW16DEM.
C. The electrical connections must be made in accordance with local codes and
regulations. In the absence of local codes and regulations, refer to the latest
edition of the National Electrical Code NFPA No. 70.
In Canada, the electrical installation should conform with CSA standard Z240.6.2-
08/C22.2 No. 148-08 Electrical Requirements for Recreational Vehicles and CSA
C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part 1 when installing the unit in recreational
vehicles and mobile homes respectively.
D. Make the 12 Volt D.C. electrical connections following the wiring diagram
illustrated in Figure 7.
If the power supply is to be from a convertor, we recommend that the converter
system be wired in parallel with the battery. This will serve two purposes:
1. Provide a constant voltage supply
2. Filter any A.C. spikes or volt surges
We recommend insulated terminals be used for all electrical connections.
MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
120 VOLTS A.C.
A. Applicable to following models SW10DE, SW10DEM, SW12DE, SW12DEM,
SW16DE, SW16DEM.
B. Refer to Figure 2 for location of A.C. junction box on models SW10DE,
SW12DE or SW16DE. Refer to Figure 5 for A.C. junction box on model SW10DM,
SW10DEM, SW12DEM or SW16DEM.
C. The electrical connections must be made in accordance with local codes and
regulations. In the absence of local codes and regulations, refer to the latest
edition of the National Electrical Code NFPA No. 70.
In Canada, the electrical installation should conform with CSA standard Z240.6.2-
08/C22.2 No. 148-08 Electrical requirements for Recreational Vehicles and CSA
C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part 1 when installing the unit in recreational
vehicles and mobile homes respectively.
D. Check rating plate and wiring diagram (Figure 8) before proceeding. Install a
fused safety switch or circuit breaker of adequate capacity between heater and
electrical power source. Attach the black and white wires from the fused switch
or breaker to corresponding colored wires in heater junction box. A green wire
from a well grounded source must be attached to the green nut in the junction
box.
