a IMPORTANT: The transformer on the R182 can over-
heat when used with a series 20 thermostat if the
total resistance of the thermostat (including thermo-
stat wire and thermostat contact resistance) exceeds
2.5 ohms, add a 100 ohm, 10 watt resistor between
the W and R terminals. Table 2 gives maximum
thermostat wire runs; if longer runs are necessary,
measure the resistance or add a 100 ohm, 10 watt
resistor across terminals W and R.

INSTALLATION
MOUNTING
TABLE 3—WIRE LENGTH SPECIFICATIONS.
For replacement, mount the relay in the same location as
the old control. If this is a new installation, locate the relay
vertically on a solid wall or partition as near as possible to
the device to be controlled. Select a location that is easily
accessible for installation and service.

l. Position the relay and mark the mounting holes. See
Fig. 1.
2. Start a screw for the keyhole type mounting hole in
the upper right-hand corner. Turn down screw within about
l/8 in. [3.2 mm] of the surface.
3. Hang the relay on the screw, position the case, and
start the bottom screw.

See Figs 2 through 10 for hookup diagrams for these
relays. When two or more devices are to be controlled in
parallel, the total current must not exceed the relay load
rating. Fig. 11 is an internal view of the RA832A, showing
terminal locations and barriers.
Never connect load terminals to a load that takes more
current than the amount listed in the electrical ratings on the
relay. See Table 3 for wiring length specifications.

Service and Checkout
1. Never use oil on any part of the relay coil or contacts.
2. Keep the cover on the relay during normal operation
and remove only for service and checkout.

3. Relay contacts require no cleaning; contacts close
with a wiping action and are self-cleaning. They may turn
black after being in service for some time; however, this
discoloration does not prevent proper operation.
4. After installation is complete, operate system through
at least one cycle from the controller to make certain the
relay controls the equipment as intended.
