Installation Instructions:
1. Mount unit in desired location. Use hardware supplied and stainless steel fasteners.
2. Slide switch on PD board to OFF position for models WPTV248UL and WPTV248ULCB (Fig. 2, pg. 5).
Turn OFF main switch on all other models (Figs. 3-4, pgs. 6-7).
3. All units are factory set for 24V
AC operation.
For 28VAC operation (for models with 24VAC/28VAC option only), adjust unit prior to mounting and applying
power as follows: Change the wire position so that the black wire [28V] is connected to the terminal marked [P] and
the yellow wire [24V] is connected to the terminal marked [S].
4. Before drilling WP enclosure for wire entry, remove back plate (four (4) screws) with all internal parts
(Fig. 2A, pg. 5). For suggested wire entry locations refer to (Fig. 1, pg. 4). Use weather tight NEMA 4 rated
connectors, bushings, and cables.
5. Place back plate with all internal parts (four (4) screws) back into WP enclosure (Fig. 2A, pg. 5).
6. Connect AC power to the black and white flying leads of the transformer(s) (Figs. 2-4, pgs. 5-7), secure green lead
to earth ground. Use 18 AWG or larger for all power connections.
Keep power limited (PTC protected outputs only) wiring separate from non-power limited wiring.
Minimum .25” spacing must be provided. Use separate entries.
7. Measure output voltage before connecting devices. This helps avoid potential damage.
Terminals marked [1P - 8P] are of the same polarity.

The lightning flash with arrow head symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of an insulated “DANGEROUS VOLTAGE” within the products enclosure that may be of sufficient
magnitude to constitute an electric shock.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock do not open enclosure. There are
no user serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
