Do you mean a t-slot 15/20a receptacle?5r20 I think it is.

The pigtail method is preferred because the circuit does not rely on the terminal screws to provide a fool proof connection and if the quick wire connections on the receptacle are used this a recipe for failure down the road. The gfci recpts have terminals marked LINE and LOAD ,the incoming...

Electricians roach clips ? Why do you think they call us SPARKY'S.

Perfectly fine to do it that way.I have found using a cable though is cheaper and quicker but less fun crawling in the attic.

I have radiant in- slab with a condensing boiler and my Veissmann boiler rep suggested not to do a night setback or an outdoor reset. Part of this logic was the slow recovery time of in-slab and the boiler is more efficient when condensing.

You want it connected to the c side of the transformer. when you say chassis ground if you mean where the wire from the common side of the transformer connects to the chassis , I think that is fine. It's common to ground the c side of a transformer grounded .

Short answer , yes I had a hard time seeing the wire diagram clearly so I wasn't quite sure where the common side of the transformer was going. :thumbup:

The stat in the wiring diagram does not have a (c) common. The wifi stat requires a (c) common 24volt transformers have a 24vac(r) and common (c) terminals. The switch leg out of a thermostat is on the (w) terminal. You need a 3 wire to the stat.

Did your sparky confirm this situation was not happening? I'm too far from the wet coast to check it out , unless you have canuck tix for me. lol

Bob,s your uncle , bury it before the crack heads get it.:thumbup:

I would mount the box for the disconnect directly over the knockout of the unit heater.Use a 4x4 or 2x4 box ,and run an armoured cable flex up through a perfectly sized hole in the drywall. No box is required at the ceiling.
