Main Power Wiring

Wire main power input and output to the appropriate 12AWG wire leads utilizing 

properly sized wire nuts. Use only copper conductors rated at least 60°C.  

Maintain proper clearances and verify that no possibility of an electrical short 

exists between the power conductors or enclosure. Ensure that wires are not 

under stress and all insulation is intact. 

Low Voltage Wiring

Automation system control wiring should be run in a separate conduit. The 

control terminals accept 26~14AWG wire torqued to 3.5 in-lb.

Installation

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN DEATH OR 

SERIOUS INJURY

Mounting

Mount the starter on a minimum 14 cu-in single gang junction box. To access 

mounting holes, slide upper and lower covers to the open position. 

(See Figure 1) 

Using provided mounting screws (6-32 x 7/8”), attach starter housing to junction 

box (once appropriate wiring has been completed).
