Field wiring to be performed at time of appliance installation.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Do not turn power on until electrical wiring is finished. Disconnect power before servicing.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury from electrical shock.
• The electrical supply required by the water heater is
120VAC at 60 Hz.
The power consumption may be up to 141W.
Use an appropriate circuit.
• Do not disconnect the power supply when not in use. When
the power is off, the freeze prevention in the water heater
will not activate, resulting in possible freezing damage.
Ground
• To prevent electrical shock, provide a ground with resistance less than 100 . An electrician should do this work.
• A grounding screw is provided on the back in the junction box.
Do not connect the ground to the city water or gas piping. Do not tie the ground to a telephone line.
Breaker Installation
• Mount a device which shuts off the electrical path automatically (leakage breaker) when electrical
leakage is detected.
1. Remove the screw (one) of the junction box and open the cover
of the junction box.
2. Connect the grounding wire to the ground screw in the cover.
3. Crimp the outdoor power cable to the power cable of the unit.
Note: When installing the water heater outdoors, either use the
included power cord with an approved outdoor outlet or
hard wire the appliance. (NR71-SV,NR66-SV only.)
