Installation
Humidifier wiring
All wiring must be in accordance with all governing codes and with 
the unit wiring diagram. Power supply wiring must be rated for 
105 °C. See Figure 19-1 for the humidifier wiring diagram locations
When selecting a location for installing the humidifier:
•  Avoid areas close to sources of electromagnetic emissions such 
as power distribution transformers.
•  Do not loop power wiring.
•  Do not use aluminum wire.
Conduit knockouts 
Conduit and control wiring knockouts are provided on the 
XT humidifier cabinet. See Figure 8-1.
CAUTION
Adding conduit connections not recommended
Adding alternate conduit connections is not recommended. If you 
must make additional holes in the humidifier cabinet, protect all 
internal components from debris, and vacuum out the cabinet when 
finished. Failure to follow these precautions can damage sensitive 
electronic components and void the DRI-STEEM warranty.

Notes: 
•  Control wiring and power wiring must be run in dedicated 
or separate earthed metal conduit, cable trays, or trunking.
•  Separate the line voltage wiring from low voltage control 
circuit wiring when routing electrical wiring inside the 
humidifier cabinet.
•  Do not use chassis or safety grounds as current-carrying 
commons. Never use a safety ground as a conductor or 
neutral to return circuit current.
