Connecting the controller to primary AC power should be done by a licensed electrician following all local codes. Install in approved conduit and fittings. The controller can operate with either 120VAC or 230VAC power. Supply wires must be 14AWG/ 2 mm2 or larger.
IMPORTANT: If you are using the plug-in method, the wiring is exactly the same but you will require an outlet. The plug referred to as a Pigtail (three wires including neutral, hot, and ground) can be purchased at most hardware outlets or a Hunter Authorized Dealer (P/N: PIGTAIL).
REMOVE FACEPACK |
- Turn AC power off at the source, and verify that it is off.
- Disconnect the facepack ribbon cable
- Remove the facepack.
- Remove the cover from the junction box.
WIRING |
-
Strip about 0.5” (13 mm) of insulation from the end of each AC power wire.
-
Route the wires through the conduit opening inside the junction box.
-
Connect the incoming black power wire (HOT) with the black wire lead from the transformer.
-
Connect the incoming white wire (NEUTRAL) with the blue lead from the transformer.
-
Connect the incoming green wire (GROUND) with the green and yellow wire from the transformer.
-
Cap the unused brown wire coming from the transformer. Replace the cover of the junction box and screw it into place.
- Replace cover, turn on the power, and test.
EARTH GROUND CONNECTION (LIGHTNING PROTECTION) |
- Insert the copper wire from earth ground hardware, and tighten the screw in front.
- Minimum 10 AWG/5mm2 wire to earth ground hardware.
- Add copper-clad steel ground rods and/or plates sufficient to achieve 10Ω or less resistance at a minimum 8’/2.5 m away from the controller.
