Re: 1RC2 Starter Question

The parts in the manual shows Series A1. My box looks different than the one shown. Could the Series be different? There is a red teardrop reset on the left side of the coil with a reset in the center of the cover. A tab is attached and will catch the red reset on the inside of the box. http://i350....

Re: 1RC2 Starter Question

I am pretty sure it is the same contactor. The conduit was still run. We followed one conduit back to breaker box. Wire and breakers were removed. There was 2 breakers removed as if it was 220. One conduit going up the hose tower to a box that still had the wires run to a junction box and then alumi...

Re: 1RC2 Starter Question

Thanks so much. Is the blue power in 110 or 220?The metal tag on the cover says it is a 110.
The siren2 is 220.
The control circuit is confusing. What is its function.

It is dated June 1979 But no 1RC2 It looks like there might have been a schematic on the inside of the cover. I bet it fell off when they pulled all the wires. And long gon...
