Proper wiring procedures (cont.).
Installation
Proper wiring prevents electrical noise (cont.)
• Do not use chassis or safety grounds as current-
carrying commons. No safety grounds should
ever be used as a conductor or neutral to return
circuit current.
• When wiring external electrical connections to
humidistats, room/duct humidity and
temperature transmitters, or control signal input
connections from a building control system, use
18-gauge (minimum) plenum-rated twisted-pair
wire, Belden #88760, with cable shielding and
drain wire for grounding.
• Return all shielded cable connections to the
control cabinet for grounding. Do not ground
shield at the device end.
• IMPORTANT: Locate the control cabinet
so that wire lengths are 50 feet or less to the
humidifier.
• Use 18-gauge stranded wire run in conduit (see
Figure 13-1) for probe and low-water cut off
wiring.
• IMPORTANT: Do not use shielded cable
for probe wiring.
