A.o. Smith 100109478 Conversion Kit 4500W 208V

Product Description

The A.O. SMITH 100109478 is a single-element conversion kit designed for PCE and PCV series electric water heaters. This kit allows a compatible water heater to be converted to single-element operation at 4500 watts and 208 volts. It is used by licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians during system modifications, replacements, or when reconfiguring a water heater for a specific electrical service. The kit provides the necessary components to complete the conversion without sourcing individual parts separately.

This conversion kit is intended for residential or light commercial electric water heater applications where single-element operation is required. It is specifically suited for PCE and PCV series units and is used when the existing electrical service calls for 208-volt operation rather than the standard 240-volt supply. Installers typically use this kit when matching a water heater to a specific panel configuration or during a like-for-like service call.
