•
a resistive load under 2 A
•
a resistive load over 14.6 A
•
systems driven by a contactor or relay (inductive load)
•
central heating systems

•
One (1) thermostat
•
Two (2) 6-32 mounting screws

Installation
TURN OFF POWER TO THE HEATING SYSTEM AT THE MAIN
POWER PANEL TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
All cables and connections must conform to the local electrical
code.
Special CO/ALR solderless connectors must be used when con-
necting with aluminum conductors.
Install the thermostat onto an electrical box.
Install the thermostat about 5 feet high, on an inside wall facing
the heater.
Avoid locations where there are air drafts (such as the top of a
staircase or an air outlet), dead air spots (such as behind a
door), or direct sunlight.
Do not install the thermostat on a wall that conceals chimney or
stove pipes.
The thermostat wires are not polarized; either wire can be con-
nected to the load or to the power supply.
