The ICM517 is UL Rated as a Type 2 device and must be installed before the equipment it is intended
to protect. It can be installed at the A/C disconnect or an indoor/outdoor electrical panel. Suitable for
use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 10,000 rms symmetrical amperes, 240V max,
when protected by a circuit breaker rated 20-60A maximum and 120V minimum. Device wires should
be kept at a minimal length to increase response time and effectiveness of the control.
Contains no serviceable parts.
Device is intended to be connected only to panel connection. All wiring must conform to national, state
and local electrical codes. 14AWG wire or larger required. Product contains no serviceable parts.
