Installation Precautions

• To minimize the potential for arcing and fire caused by product damage or improper installation use ground-fault protection. The National Electrical Code (NEC) and Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) require ground-fault protection of equipment for each branch circuit supplying electric heat tracing.
• Installation must comply with Thermon requirements and be installed in accordance with the NEC, CEC, or any other applicable national and local codes.
• Component approvals and performance ratings are based on the use of Thermon specified parts only. User supplied power connection fittings must be listed or certified for intended use.
• Avoid electrostatic charge. Clean only with a damp cloth.
• De-energize all power sources before opening enclosure.
• Keep ends of heating cable and kit components dry before and during installation.
• Individuals installing these products are responsible for complying with all applicable safety and health guidelines. Proper personal protective equipment, or PPE, should be utilized during installation. Contact Thermon if you have any additional questions.
