This component is an electrical device that must be 

installed correctly to ensure proper operation and to 

prevent shock or fire. Read these important warnings 

and carefully follow all the installation instructions.

•  To minimize the danger of fire from sustained electrical 

arcing if the heating cable is damaged or improperly 

installed, and to comply with the requirements of Tyco 

Thermal Controls, agency certifications, and national 

electrical codes, ground-fault equipment protection 

must be used. Arcing may not be stopped by conven-

tional circuit breakers.

•  Bus wires will short if they contact each other. Keep 

bus wires separated.

•  Keep components and heating cable ends dry before 

and during installation.

•  The black heating cable core is conductive and can 

short. It must be properly insulated and kept dry.

•  Component approvals and performance are based on 

the use of Tyco Thermal Controls-specified parts only. 

Do not use substitute parts or vinyl electrical tape.

•  Leave these instructions with end user for reference 

and future use.
