What is the wire diagram for a 115/120 volt water heater; is it the same as the one shown in the instructions that came with the box?

the 2 black wires are the total 220/240 volt circuit ,the copper bare wire is an external ground for the tank and other metal chassi/box in case the element or wiring short in those parts . There is no white neutral wire in a 220/240 circuit, only in a 120 circuit, keeps you breathing and smiling . In a 120 circuit the bare and white are tied to the same screw and black is only to one screw.

I used an electrician/handyman, contact Customer support via phone or e-mail at: Phone: 815-675-7000, or via their website. They will be able to help and direct you to their online specifications which you can print out. http://www.intermatic.com/About/%7E/link.aspx?_id=ADA2EAC54A3944C7B25AC5AE9EB76E19&_z=z

The unit has 2 120 V.A.C. hot wires from the circuit breaber panel and a bare ground wire.The hot wires are each 120 V.A.C. making the timer box used on a 240 V.A.C. hot water heater, the bare wire is a ground wire.

Shown is one of the possible 2 that cover 90% of Atwood water heaters, with electronic ignition (no matches). Take the model # off the heater, Enter "Atwood model #xxxxx, ignition circuit board". This is the orig equip circuit board in my 92 E350 "Four Winds" Class C & identical to many in 5th wheels & pull behinds. Upon ordering, I received an upgraded later circuit board for 6 gal W/H (mounting holes in different spots, repositioned connector, slightly different appearance & wiring. Advisory: Remove solenoid/Regulator (follow wiring through Thermostat & Hi-Temp protector to solenoid). Underneath this assembly is a green ground wire attached to body. Corrosion or poor connection here, is the Major culprit of most malfunctions of water heater starting. Simply cut off existing crimp connector, Clean contact Spot, replace mounting screw, crimp on new wire terminal, clean mounting surface with steel wool & terminal cleaner, reassemble & try again, B4 buying circuit board. Possibly save a lot of money for $1 parts. Calipthom@msn.com.

Johnny....I am not a technician so I can only suggest you do as I did. Remove the cover to you HW Heater and get the exact model number listed on the side panel label. Once you have that number just Google "Anode Rod" for that model number. Worked for me!

My unit is branded "Estate" it came in a park model camper made by Salem. I believe it is made by Kenmore. There is no wiring diagram, just plug the wires in to match the old unit.

This unit is 220 V; not 110 V. As far as the plumbing concern I did this myself along with the wiring. Hope this helps you good luck

Mine did too but it wasn't the heaters fault. In one case the plug i used for my heater was too small. Another time the wire to the heater was too small. These electrical components should be rated for 60 to 80 amps, wire size 8 or so. these wires are the size of a pencil and carry a lot of current. Usually the power componants to the heater are at fault. The breaker should be at least 60 amps or more. Note use your own units directions as each one is different. Hope this opinion helps.

Directions and a diagram were included in the box with mine. As for the wire I would check with local hardware stores or auto parts stores.

Please google images on this connector and wire. I think the wire you are using is for 120 VAC and not 240 VAC. You should have 4 conductor (Black/Black, white, green or Black/Red, white green) 2 phase @ 240V, Neutral and Ground.

The diagram is all you need. If that is not enough, you should have an electrician install it. More people die from 120volts than greater voltages because of not understanding the dangers.

My water heater is a Bradford White Model #MITW50L6LN10 48 Gal. The exhaust motor/fan assembly shown is exactly like the one that I replaced on mine and the price quoted including shipping is less than what I paid. It was easy to replace. Good luck !

Yes. What you see pictured is exactly what the unit looks like. Two spade type connectors for the electric connections, and there is a threaded stud on the face of the water heater that has a nut that holds this unit against the surface of the water heater. Just be careful the electric is turned off prior to replacing this assembly, and the water does not need to be drained either.

I'm not sure what the model is of the unit I replaced but this unit works great! Are you concerned with quality, size or wiring?

Yes, owners manual has instruction for both 115 and 230 volts.Inlet port is 2" and outlet is 1.5".Have used this pump for 1 season and am very satisfied.It performs better than others I've used and makes less noise.

Its a standardized part for suburban water heaters. Same thread pattern, depending on manufacturer of the part it can come in various sizes, but this specifically is the same size as the one that comes in the tank.

You should have two running from the panel to the box, and two from the box to the heater... Do you know if you have 220 or 110 power? OR are you saying you only have 2 wires in the box total?? I need more info...

Good question. I think 115/230 volt rating is a misprint. It should say 115/120 volt rating. The plug is not a 230 volt plug.

Open the door where the tank is and the model number for the water tank is located on the walls inside. Then type that number with the drain plug description into the Internet for an exact fit. This was about an inch shorter than the original when I took it out. Just be sure it is not longer and same 1440wattage. 1440w is on the plug when you remove it.
