2.6 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
All field wiring connections for power and controls are inside the control panel at the front of
the BLP Series water heater. The wiring label is attached to the inside aluminum door of the
control box. An external electrical disconnect (not supplied with the water heater) with
adequate overload protection is required. The water heater must be grounded in accordance
with national, state or provincial, and local codes.
Connect the system to the correct voltage. The BLP Series water heater requires 120V AC,
15Amp service with ground (H, N, G) supplied from a suitable circuit breaker or fused
disconnect. The circulation pump has a 120V constant speed fractional HP motor that
operates continuously when the power to the unit is on.
Refer to Section 6.4 for standard electrical wiring drawings/schematics/terminal block
connections.
CAUTION!
All electrical wiring must be in accordance with all local, state, and national codes that apply. Do
not exceed the rated current of the D.C. power supply (100MA) or the form ‘C’ relay outputs
(5A/240VAC resistive).
WARNING!
Hazardous voltages are present within the enclosure. Installation or service should be carried
out only by trained personnel.
CAUTION!
Do not operate the pump without water in the unit! Do not turn on power before filling with
water! Failure to do so can cause damage to the pump.
