Lead wire terminals

High temperature wire is internally connected to the heater. This provides a safer electrical connection. However, it is physically impossible to conceal heavy gauge wire under the top metallic sheet. This limits the maximum amperage applicable to 20 Amps.

Styles

  • Armor cable
  • Stainless steel braid
  • Plain lead wire
Within each style, there are different models of lead wire exits.

Armor cable

Armor cable provides the best protection against abrasion where a great deal of flexibility is not required. Straight lead exit or 90° bend are the available options for this lead type. Brass fittings are used to secure the termination.
