Installation
WHEN INSTALLING THIS PRODUCT…
1. Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow
them could damage the product or cause a hazardous condition.
2. Check the ratings given in these instructions and on
the product to ensure the product is suitable for your
application.
3. Ensure installer is a trained, experienced service
technician.
4. After completing installation, use these instructions
to check product operation.
CA UTION
Disconnect power supply before beginning installation to prevent electrical shock and equipment
damage.
MOUNTING
The R8285 mounts on a standard four inch square
junction box. Make wiring connections in the junction box,
then fasten the R8285 to the junction box by placing the
junction box screws through the notches in the R8285
mounting plate.

NOTE: The R8285 must be mounted in an enclosure. The
R8285 may be mounted in any position except with the
mounting plate horizontal and the relay on top of the
mounting plate.
WIRING R8285A, B MODELS
All wiring must comply with local codes and ordinances. Disconnect power before making wiring connections to prevent electrical shock or equipment damage.
1. Make primary connections to line voltage power
supply. On multitap models, make sure you are using
correct leads or terminals for available power supply. See
Fig. 1.
2. On multitap models with leadwires, insulate ends of
unused leads by taping or capping with a solderless connector.
3. Make secondary connections to 24 Vac control circuit.
4. Refer to Figs. 2 or 3 for typical wiring diagrams.
