Wiring Provisions / Wiring
This heater is designed for permanent installation.
A maximum of No. 10 AWG wire (not included) may
be used. All wiring should be planned and run before
heaters are set in place. Left end wiring is sold stan-
dard. (See Figure 2 for internal heater wiring). The
volume of the EBHN wiring compartment is 31.4 cubic
inches (515 cubic centimeters).
When wiring unit through rear, remove knockout and
place heater on wall. Mark knockout location on wall.
When wiring unit from oor, measure 1½ inches
(38mm) from wall and 2¼ inches (57mm) from left
end of unit. Cut a ⅞ inch (22mm) hole in oor cen-
tered on the measured location (See Figure 3).
Connect the grounding lead to the green grounding
screw (included), using a wire connector (not
included). (See Figure 2).
Protect electrical supply from kinks, sharp objects, oil,
grease, hot surfaces or chemicals.
