General Information
• You can power the control from the supplied 1361 Transformer (1361CN in Canada),
rated 16.5VAC, 40VA, which plugs directly into a 24 hour, 120VAC, 60 Hz outlet.
• If using power line carrier devices, you must use the 4300 Transformer instead.
U
L
Use 1361CN Transformer in Canadian installations.
Earth Ground Considerations
In order for the lightning transient protective devices in this product to be effective, the
designated earth ground terminal (terminal 30), must be terminated in a good earth ground.
We recommend using #16 AWG copper wire run at a maximum length of 25 ft. The following
are examples of good earth grounds available at most installations:
• Metal Cold Water Pipe: Use a non-corrosive metal strap (copper is recommended)
firmly secured to the pipe to which the ground lead is electrically connected and secured.
• AC Power Outlet Ground: Available from 3-prong, 120VAC, power outlets only. To test
the integrity of the ground terminal, use a three-wire circuit tester with neon lamp
indicators, such as the UL-Listed Ideal Model 61-035, or equivalent, available at most
electrical supply stores.
Connecting the Transformer
1. Use the Polling Loop Current Draw and Auxiliary Device Current Draw Worksheets
found later in this section to make sure that the currents drawn by the devices connected
to the system do not exceed the system's respective ratings.
