Installation InstructionsSection 22-5Electrical ServiceGENERALWARNINGAll wiring must conform to local, state and nationalcodes.VOLTAGEThe maximum allowable voltage variation is ± 10%of the rated voltage on the ice machine model/serialnumber nameplate at start-up (when the electricalload is highest).WARNINGThe ice machine must be grounded in accordancewith national and local electrical codes.FUSE/CIRCUIT BREAKERA separate fuse/circuit breaker must be provided foreach ice machine. Circuit breakers must beH.A.C.R. rated (does not apply in Canada).TOTAL CIRCUIT AMPACITYThe total circuit ampacity is used to help select thewire size of the electrical supply.The wire size (or gauge) is also dependent uponlocation, materials used, length of run, etc., so itmust be determined by a qualified electrician.WARNINGNever use an extension cord. If an outlet is notwithin reach of the ice machine’s power cord, havea proper amperage outlet wired closer to the icemachine.The 115/1/60 ice machines are factory pre-wiredwith a 6’ power cord, and NEMA 5-20P-plugconfiguration.The 230/50/1 ice machines are factory pre-wiredwith a 6’ power cord only, no plug is supplied.QM-45 ICE MACHINEVoltage Air-CooledIce Machine PhaseCycleMaximumFuse/CircuitBreakerTotal AmpsQM-45 115/1/60 15 5.2230/1/50 15 2.6For United Kingdom OnlyAs the colours of the wires in the mains lead of the appliance may not correspond withthe coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:• The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in theplug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth ground symbol or colouredgreen or green and yellow.• The wire coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with theletter N or coloured black.• The wire coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with theletter L or coloured red.
