Are you a homeowner interested in learning how to wire an Atwood water heater switch? If so, this blog article is for you.
Atwood water heaters are found in many recreational vehicles and boats, and they typically require a switch to control power to the unit. However, the process of wiring the switch can be intimidating if you’re not familiar with electrical work. To make it easier, here’s a step-by-step guide that will have your Atwood water heater up and running in no time.
The first thing you will need to do is turn off all power connected to the water heater. This can usually be done by flipping the main breaker switch. With that done, you’ll want to locate the wiring diagram on the back of the switch cover. The diagram should show you exactly which wires to connect to the terminals on the switch. You will likely see three wires exiting the switch: black, white, and red.
Next, identify which wire is connected to the power source. This will typically be the wire marked ‘HOT’ or ‘L1’. Connect this wire to the terminal marked ‘L1’ on the switch. Then, connect the red wire to the terminal labeled ‘L2’ and the white wire to the terminal labeled ‘NEUTRAL’.
Once all the necessary connections have been made, you can restore power to the water heater. Do this by flipping the main breaker switch back on. If everything has been done correctly, the Atwood water heater should now be operational.
For those who lack experience working with electronics, wiring an Atwood water heater switch can be intimidating. But with this easy to follow guide, you’ll be able to take control and get your heater up and running in no time. So if you ever find yourself needing to rewire your Atwood water heater switch, remember to put safety first and keep this article handy.
