For All Heaters
The FSP-series heaters do not have any on board controls
and therefore all permanently connected heaters must be
used in conjunction with the applicable Fostoria FPC-series
control center or be wired to a listed, properly rated safety
switch for on/off control. Always disconnect the power at the
circuit breaker or disconnect switch before installing electric
power to the heater. If the breaker or disconnect switch
cannot be seen from where you will be working, lock it in the
open position and tag it to prevent unexpected application
of power. Failure to do so could result in fatal electric shock.
Do not depend on a thermostat or other switch as the sole
means of turning off power to the heater.
To disconnect power to heaters using wall receptacles and
plugs, simply unplug the heater.
“Bonding” is the intentional electrical connection of all non-current
carrying metal parts to the equipment grounding (green) conductor
of the heater and then terminating this green conductor to the green
conductor of the power supply to form a low-impedance path back
to the power supply so that safety devices (circuit breakers, fuses)
can quickly remove dangerous touch voltage from these parts when
a fault occurs. Always securely connect the green conduc-
tor from the power supply to the green conductor of the
heater .
