When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to
persons, including the following:
Read all instructions before using this heater and receptacle.
Turn the electrical power off at the electrical panel board (circuit breaker or fuse box) and lock or tag the
panel board door to prevent someone from turning on power while you are working on the heater. Failure to
do so could result in serious electrical shock, burns, or possible death.

Remove one of the wiring compartment covers at either end of
the baseboard heater. Note: if the heater has a built-in thermostat,
use wiring compartment at opposite end.
STEP 2
Remove the slotted knockout closest to the supply wires and install
a strain relief connector. (DO NOT CONNECT TO HEATER WIRES.)
STEP 3
Pull supply wires through the connector and secure, leaving 6 inch
wire leads. Remove ¾ inch of the insulation from the conductors.
STEP 4
Wrap ground (bare wire) securely around the green terminal screw.
Tighten terminal screw securely, 9-12 pound·inch (1.0-1.4 N·m)
of torque. (See Figure 1)
