Heating cable control options and power
connection
For 120 Volt cables, the heating cable can be simply plugged
into a ground fault protected electrical receptacle, when icing
conditions are present on the roof. The (optional) EasyHeat RS-2
Roof Sentry (120 Volt) control can be used to automatically
ensure cables are energized only when icing conditions are
present on the roof, minimizing energy consumption and
extending cable life.
For 240 Volt cables, the cable is designed to be directly
connected into an appropriate electrical connection box.
Since it will be necessary to remove power from the cable from
time to time, such as in summer, always connect the cable to
an appropriate double-pole electrical switch. If the heating
cable is the only load on the circuit, the branch circuit breaker
may be used to disconnect power from the cable (switch is
not necessary). Several automatic controls are available from
EasyHeat.
Always connect a pilot light into the circuit of 240V cables to
indicate when the cables are energized.
Testing the system. Once the installation is complete, apply
power to the heating cable; the surface of the cable will feel
warm after about 15 minutes.
Operation
If no automatic controls are installed, energize the cable only
when icing conditions are present on the roof, and de-energize
when icing conditions are no longer present. For 120 Volt models
only, the power cord plug contains a pilot light indicating that
power is being applied to the cable. Ensure power is removed
from the cable/control in summer.
Maintenance
Check cable annually for any damage, such as nicks or cuts
possibly caused by animals or other activity on the roof. Check
any ground fault protection devices for proper operation.
Remove all debris (leaves, twigs, pine needles, etc.) from roof,
gutters and downspouts prior to energizing the roof cable. Do
not attempt to energize the roof cable if any of these problems
are discovered.
