Welcome.:thumbsup:
Ground the bare conductor to the heater cap off the white and all you have is black and red left...Hi, we just bought a 240v wall heater. My question is this; The heater has a black and a red wire. Our wall wire from the breaker box has a red, black,
white and a ground. It was originally wired to have an external wall thermostat but we ended up buying a heater without that. So, what do we wire to what and what should we do with the extra wire? Thanks!
Manda-ok, did that and nothing happened when we turned it on....![]()
That was my thought as well. Also don't understand why the existing cable is 3-wire. Wonder what used to be powered from that circuit?Is the heater on a 2 pole breaker?
Why do you submit the "never do this" statement?Red Squirrel said:any leg to neutral or ground(never do this) is 120v
