1. Prior to opening the meter base, or breaker panel, MAKE CERTAIN THE MAIN BREAKER IS IN
THE “OFF” POSITION.
2. If there is not space at the meter base, or you prefer, the PS-1200 can be installed at the load center
(breaker panel).
3. Many homes have multiple breaker panels and the PS-1200 can be installed on any breaker panel in the
home, providing there is space for the dedicated breaker.
4. The PS-1200 is designed to condition “ALL” power consumed by inductive loads (electric motors) in the
home regardless of installation location.
5. If there are no spaces available at the meter base or breaker panel, a sub panel can be installed for a
dedicated breaker.
6. The PS-1200 “MUST” be installed on a dedicated two pole 20 amp 220 volt breaker. Piggy backing is
against national building codes.
7. The PS-1200 units is enclosed in a NEMA 3R box allowing it to be installed indoors or outdoors, but
“CAN NOT” be installed under water.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Prior to opening the meter base or breaker panel MAKE CERTAIN THE MAIN BREAKER IS IN THE
“OFF” POSTION.
2. The power should remain “OFF” until the entire installation is complete.
3. Install a two pole 20 amp 220 volt breaker and secure the two red leads (wires) of the PU-1200, one on
each side of the breaker. Secure the green wire from the PS-1200 to the ground bar in the panel. Leave
breaker in “OFF” position until power is restored to panel.
4. Remove “tabs” (knockouts) from the cover allowing access to the breaker after cover is reinstalled.
Reinstall the panel cover securely.
5. Turn power (main breaker) back on. Flip the “dedicated” breaker to “ON” and check that the indicator
light is on. This will indicate that the unit is on and installation is complete.
6. If the light is “not” on turn off power, and check to make certain good contacts are made with the two
red wires and the breaker, and the green wire and the ground bar. Install cover, turn power back on,
and check light again.
7. If light remains off call your dealer or tech support at 800-955-2238.
