Installation Guide
A.) IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. For Model: RC-50
WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless they are
closely supervised at all times.
3. For all permanently-installed units intended for use on 15 or 20 ampere, 125 through 240 volt,
single phase branch circuits
WARNING - Risk of Electric Shock. Connect only to a branch circuit protected by a ground-fault
circuit-interrupter (GFCI). Contact a qualied electrician if you cannot verify that the circuit is
protected by a GFCI.
4. (For all permanently installed units intended for use on 15 or 20 ampere, 125 through 240 volt,
single phase branch circuits.)
The unit must be connected only to a supply circuit that is protected by a ground-fault circuit-
interrupter (GFCI). Such a GFCI should be provided by the installer and should be tested on a
routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Push the
reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI is
defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the unit without the test button being pushed, a ground
current is owing, indicating the possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this unit. Disconnect
the unit and have the problem corrected by a qualied service representative before using.
5. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
6. (only on metal enclosures)
A wire connector is provided on this unit to connect a minimum No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm²) solid copper
conductor between this unit and any metal equipment, metal enclosures of electrical equipment,
metal water pipe, or conduit within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the unit.
7. DANGER - Risk of electric shock.
Install at least 5 feet (1.5 m) from all metal surfaces. As an alternative, a spa may be installed within 5
feet of metal surfaces, if each metal surface is permanently connected by a minimum No. 8 AWG
(8.4 mm²) solid copper conductor to the wire connector on the terminal box that is provided for this
purpose.
