WARNING:
a) There is a danger of f ire f rom sustained electrical arcing if the heating cable is damaged or improperly installed. To comply w ith Tyco Thermal
Controls requirements, certifications, and National Electrical Codes, and to protect against the risk of f ire, each cable must have a grounded metal
covering and ground-fault protection of equipment. A rcing may not be stopped by conventional circuit breakers. Ref er to the most recent version of
the U.S. National Electrical Code, Sections 427-22 and 427-23; the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, Section 62; EN 50019; or other appropriate
standard. In addition, all installation instructions must be f ollow ed caref ully.
b) Fire and Explosion Hazard. When used in hazardous locations (Zone 1 or Zone 2) there is a danger of f ire or explosion if the heating cable
system is not selected, installed, and maintained properly. This program w ill only select the proper heating cable and components if the input
variables are correct. Be sure the data you input are correct, and that the heating cable is properly installed and maintained as described in the
appropriate design guide, installation instructions, and maintenance manuals available f rom your representative or Tyco Thermal Controls. Follow
all applicable codes and standards, including IEEE 515, CAN/CSA- E60079 Series, or EN60079-14. Contact Tyco Thermal Controls if you have
any questions or concerns before installing the cable.
