Upper thermostat wiring diagram. It shows the elements of the circuit as simplified forms and also the power as well as signal connections between the tools. A wiring diagram is a simplified standard pictorial representation of an electrical circuit. Here is the industry standard thermostat wire color code used for most systems. When upper water heater element done his work upper thermostat switch of the neutral wire to upper thermostat and provide the neutral wire to lower thermostat. The yellow wire connects to your compressor. The white wire connects to your heat.
Upper thermostat high temp. The water heater element is connected to the thermostat via t 2 as hot and l 4 as neutral. Green the green wire connects to the fan. The rh wire connects to the heating system. Limit eco upper heating element yellow black l1 junction red 1 3 1 2 black red lower thermostat 1 2 4 branch circuit to electrical. If old thermostat has 8 terminals as in figure 6 wire new 7 terminal thermostat per figure 5.
Rc red wire power 24 vac rh or 4 red wire jumpered power 24 vac. If old upper thermostat is a robertshaw control wire new upper thermostat per figure 2 noting that the physical location of the 2 and the 4 terminals are reversed for the new upper thermostat.
