how many wires are needed to the unit? one for high and one for low and white neutral? trying to figure out if I need 12/3 or 12/2 romex.

Are you connect to 20 amp breaker? Than you use 12/2. 15 amp 14/2. You need the /2 for power and the /3 for high & low ( like a 3 way switch)

2 for the motor, 1 ground. I only used one speed and put a triac on it. It does have a 3rd wire for the motor for low, but I didn't use it. I love using a triac because it's an off switch with variable speed.

4 wires total, Ground ( Bare ), Nuteral ( White ), Slow Hot ( Black or Red ) and Fast Hot ( Whatever was not used for Slow ). If you use a switch with it you will find you connect all the wires. You could connect it as SLOW or FAST ONLY and then cap the left over wire.

IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF WHAT YOU ARE DOING, GET AN ELECTRICIAN. On my setup, no neutral wire was used. It does not connect into the unit. I spent a week trying to figure it out and even asked 2 electricians. The instruction doesn't say, but if you look at the wiring diagram it is clear.

Two conductor wire will work OK.However to be code compliant you should use two conductor AND a ground wire>

Don't know how to work with 2 wires. This switch took three wires: blue for load, black for hot line, and white for neutral line. You need to have three wires to make it work.

I just looked at my install guide and there is a big note on the front that says "Note This switch cannot be used is no neutral wire (white wires joint together) inside the electrical box." hope that helps

The 730 needs two neutral wires and two load wires in order to be installed. If you have a single pole with one load and one neutral then the 530 is the model you need. There are also no instructions for doing a three way wire set-up on the 730. The 530 allows for that too.

Jeff is correct. Only two wires (conductors) are needed. If you have thermostat wire with more than two conductors, no problem, just use two of them and ignore the rest.

Yes, wire to inside unit is included. #12 wire is sufficient for outside unit power, it can handle 20 amps. Some local codes require a fourth white (neutral) wire in 230 volt appliances. It acts as a backup ground and safer should something happen to the copper ground wire.

no, you need a hvl switch which has 3 toggle switch. use a 12/4 tray cable to wire the unit.

hello Ed, wiring is depended on how many lights and how far. I use 12/2, because I am running up to 75 feet away, running about 15 lights.short distant would be fine for 14/2 wire. Brent

for 220 use yellow/green for ground. the other 2 wires are hot. for 110 use yellow/green for ground. and use one wire hot and the other neutral.

I'm also using.035 wire with mine. You will need to run a bit hotter then what you chart calls for.

If this is the single (I've bought two location models too), it has three wires if I remember correctly. Load, ground, neutral. It's quite easy to install. Unit it slightly deeper than a standard wall switch but a standard box will handle it.

My electrician ran 8/4. 2 hot, 1 neutral and 1 ground. He said because of the distance from the panel (27 Ft ) #8 was best. Had it been a shorter run, # 10 would have been ok. Why are you using 3 wire romex? If you are going to run the heater on 120V, be sure and read the manuel and make any required internal wiring changes. You will get much less heat output on 120v. I am not an electrician but this is what I understood from my electrician. My garage is 500sf and is insulated, even at single digit temps outside it will be around 70 deg. inside when set on med. Hope this was helpful. I love the heater at this point.

We recommend contacting an electrician. You will need all 4 wires properly connected.

You're probably thrown off because it had two sets of terminals. That's so you can run these in series. You can attach neutral to either one of the terminals of one pair and vice versa for hot, and it doesn't matter which one. So if you only have one wire, you have one empty terminal on each side.

Honestly, I'm not sure. I have a six seperate wires coming out of one comfortably. I can see 10 but 12 not sure. Maybe you should just do two side by side. Hope this helped you.
