INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
SINGLE HEATER WIRING
BTF1 – 240/208V and 120V
Cut only one factory splice on base-
board heater: A, B, or C (refer to Figure
1). Connect one supply wire to the red
thermostat wire. Connect black thermo-
stat wire to one heater wire. Be sure the
other supply wire is connected directly
to the heater wire. Connect Ground.
BTF2 – 240/208V only
Cut only one factory splice on
baseboard heater: A, B, or C (refer to
Figure 1). Connect one black thermostat
wire to one heater wire. Connect
remaining black wire to remaining
heater wire. Connect one supply wire to
red thermostat wire. Connect remaining
supply wire to remaining red wire.
Connect ground.
BTF2 – 120V only
Connect the supply hot wire (typically
black) to a red thermostat wire (refer to
small numbers on back of BTF2 switch).
Connect the neutral supply wire (typical-
ly white) to a red thermostat wire. Cut
only one factory splice on baseboard
heater: A, B, or C (Refer to Figure 1).
Connect the remaining black thermostat
wires to each of the heater wires.
Connect Ground. All 4 wires must be
used.
MULTIPLE HEATER WIRING
More than one baseboard heater can be wired in
parallel on same circuit (Be sure to check nation-
al and local codes for safety requirements).
BTF1 - 120V or 240V Supply
Disconnect "A," "B" or "C" but only remove one
factory connector on each baseboard. (Left side
wiring: disconnect A or B, but not both. Right side
wiring: disconnect C only). Connect one supply
lead (hot for 120v) to the red thermostat wire.
Connect black thermostat wire to one wire on
each heater. Connect remaining wire from each
heater to the remaining supply lead (neutral for
120v). Connect ground wire to both heaters.
BTF2 - 120V or 240V Supply
Disconnect "A," "B" or "C" but only remove one
factory connector on each baseboard. (Left side
wiring: disconnect A or B, but not both. Right side
