Electrical Wiring
Wiring Procedure
1) Remove the junction box cover and
straighten the wires to make sure the
stripped wire ends are accessible
outside the junction box.
2) Connect the pump wires to the
power supply lines according to the
diagram. Be certain to properly
insulate the connections with the
appropriate wire nuts or other
connectors. Note that the ground
wire MUST be connected.
3) Fold the wires back into the junction
box and replace the cover, making
sure the cover gasket is in place.
WARNING! Electrical wiring should be performed ONLY by a licensed electrician
in compliance with local, state, and national electrical code NEC/ANSI/NFPA 70,
NFPA30, and NFPA 30A, as appropriate to the intended use of the pump.
Threaded rigid conduit, sealed fittings, and conductor seal should be used. The
pump must be properly grounded. Improper installation or use of this pump can
result in serious bodil
in
ur
, or death!
WARNING! The “AUX.” wire IS A LIVE WIRE when the switch is on! The
“AUX” lead wire is insulated and enclosed when shipped. DO NOT connect this
wire without first verifying the “ON” line voltage of the wire for compatibility with
the equipment to be installed. Maximum amperage on this wire is 1 amp. The
“AUX” wire must be insulated and enclosed in the
unction box if not used.
CAUTION! All pumps should be operated at the Rated Nameplate Voltage.
Power should be supplied to the pump from a dedicated 20 amp circuit breaker.
No other equipment should be powered by this circuit. Wiring must be of
sufficient size to carry the correct current for the pump. Voltage drop will vary with
distance to pump and size of wire; refer to the National Electrical Code (NEC), or
local codes, for Voltage Drop Compensation to be sure you are using the correct
size wire for
our a
lication.
IMPORTANT! Be certain
the gasket for the cover is in
place, and the screws draw
the cover down tight over
the junction box. There must
be no gap between the
unction box and its cover.
