NOTE: If the dryer cannot be restarted (or stops) each time the demand
controller sheds, contact BHP. The dryer may require a specific rewiring change
to operate correctly. BHP will assist you in ensuring that the rewiring is done
properly.
CAUTION: If you purchase a new dryer or if you move into a home with a
demand controller already installed, your dryer may not work properly. Since
dryers are not all wired the same, the dryer wires in the circuit breaker panel,
may have to be reversed (see note above).
Load Control Strategies
Your demand controller is the most versatile electric demand controller available on the
market today. It offers a virtually unlimited number of load control strategies, allowing
you to maximize adaptability to load requirements and user lifestyles. These strategies
include the Fixed Priority strategy, the Rotating strategy, and a wide range of combination
strategies.
In addition to these strategies, all circuits may be assigned minimum On and Off times
variable up to 15 minutes. This is designed specically for heat pump and air conditioning
compressors requiring time delay protection. Even though this feature is available on all
circuits, BHP recommends programming minimum on-off times for heat pumps and A/C
units only.
Changing Load Control Strategies: When your control unit was installed, the strategy
most appropriate to your home’s requirements was selected (most common is the
Fixed Priority Strategy). If your home’s requirements have since changed, or if you would
like to change your load control strategy, refer to your Installation Manual for detailed
instructions, or contact BHP.
