ADA HIGH VOLTAGE WIRING INSTRUCTIONS FOR DOUBLE BLOWER RANGE HOODS WITH
ROCKER SWITCH CONTROL
WARNING
For residential (domestic) installation only. Before proceeding, switch power off at service panel and lock service
disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. Installation work and electrical wiring
must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated
construction codes and standards. Also, it is recommended to wear safety glasses and gloves.
ACCESS TO RANGE HOOD CONTROL PANEL CONNECTIONS
Remove both filters from the hood and set them aside.
Remove both side fillers by removing the 3 screws holding each
one of them. Slide each one towards the center of the hood and
tilt it up to remove it completely. Set the fillers and screws aside.

Using a 11/32” nutdriver or socket, remove both lock nuts
retaining the flange of each blower cover plate (shaded parts
on illustration at right) to the inner back of hood (see insets).
Remove all cover plate retaining screws (10 screws), then set
both blower covers along with their screws and nut aside.
Locate the small plates on both left and right inner side ot the
hood (shaded part in illustration below). Use thin sheet metal
snips to split these plates.
CAUTION
Be careful not to kink the range hood side panels while
splitting the plates.
NOTES: 1. The plates are for shipping purpose only, there is no
need to reinstall them.
2. Blower not shown on illustration to ease
understanding.

CAUTION
Use standard switches that are rated 120 VAC, 15 A. Only use wires suitable for at least 90C (194F). Ensure the
wires are reliably routed away from the halogen lights (if present).
To suit your needs, there are 2 ways to wire a 2-rocker switch control to these range hoods: 120 VAC power cable entering the range hood
or 120 VAC power cable entering the switch box.
120 VAC POWER CABLE ENTERING THE HOOD
Install a 2-rocker switch at a convenient place for the
user. Use a 14/3 cable to wire it to the range hood
(see diagram at right).
NOTE: The code requires both ends of the WHITE
wire insulation to be colored; use a permanent
marker.
NOTE: Allow enough length of 14/3 cable to perform the RED wire
connection in the hood nose.
Insert the 14/3 cable along with the 14/2 house wiring cable in the
hood through an UL approved wire clamp, suitable for 2 cables.
Add a GROUND wire and connect one of its end to the GREEN
ground screw. Use an appropriate wire nut to connect the other
end of the added GROUND wire with the ground wire coming
from the 14/3 cable and the ground wire coming from 14/2 house
wiring cable.
Connect BLACK wire from house wiring to WHITE wire from
14/3 cable using an appropriate wire nut.
Connect BLACK wire from 14/3 cable to BLACK wire from range
hood wiring using an appropriate wire nut.
Connect WHITE wire from house wiring to WHITE wire range
hood wiring using an appropriate wire nut.
Run RED wire from 14/3 cable to top of right blower scroll. See
next page for RED wire connection.

diagram at right).
NOTE: Allow enough length of 14/3 cable to perform the RED wire

Insert the 14/3 cable in the hood through an UL approved wire
clamp. Connect ground wire to the GREEN ground screw.
Connect WHITE wire from 14/3 cable to WHITE wire from range
hood wiring using an appropriate wire nut.
Connect BLACK wire from 14/3 cable to BLACK wire from range
hood wiring using an appropriate wire nut.
Run RED wire from 14/3 cable to top of right blower scroll. See next

RANGE HOOD OPERATION
Use the hood control to set or change the blower and light intensities desired; these settings will be applied when using the wall
switches. For example, if the blower is set on high speed using the hood control, when the user presses on the motor rocker switch on
the wall control, the blower will then turn on high speed. If the user wants the blower to turn on low speed, the blower speed must be
changed using the hood control. It is not necessary to turn off the blower to change its speed.
The same procedure applies for the light intensities (when low and high intensities are available).
THIS PROCEDURE APPLIES TO BROAN BPDC1, BPDP1, AND NUTONE NPDP1
DOUBLE BLOWER RANGE HOOD SERIES.
