An R wire can go into a Nest Learning Thermostat's Rc or Rh connector. The Nest Thermostat E only has an R connector, which is typically where an R wire would go.
Some units don't have an RH wire, but instead, they have an R wire. An R wire is similar to either the RC or the RH, so if you don't have an RH wire, the R wire will be in place to control the heating system.
The Rh wire on your thermostat connects to your heating system as opposed to your cooling system.
To create a new jumper for RC/RH, use a short piece of thermostat wire, strip the insulation off both ends of the wire and bend it in half. Connect one end to RC and the other end to RH on the wall plate. Leave the wire that comes out of the wall attached to either RC or RH.
If you have two wires, R or RH go into the R terminal and RC into the RC terminal. If you have more than one wire (for example, you have a wire labeled R and another wire labeled Rc), remove any jumpers between the R and Rc terminals or push the switch to open the RC terminal to insert a wire.
Rc and Rh: The red wire(s) are the power source for your thermostat. If your thermostat is dedicated to air conditioning only, it will have a red Rc wire. For heating and cooling systems, it will have a red Rc and a red Rh wire. Though both wires are red, they are not interchangeable.
It doesn't matter which connection with a simple switch, but it may matter on a smart switch, dimmer, timer, motion sensor, etc. The switched hot (usually red) wire goes to the other connection on the switch. If the switch requires neutral, connect the white neutral wire to the appropriate connection.
If you only have one R wire (no Rh or Rc), you can connect your R wire to either Rc or Rh on the Nest thermostat. Important: Don't connect any Jumper wires to the Nest thermostat. If you don't have an Rc wire, the Rh wire is the power wire for both your heating and cooling systems.
This means that the wire isn't sending voltage to your thermostat. Some wires, like a C or R wire, need to send voltage to keep your thermostat powered on.
The Rhesus factor, or Rh factor, is a certain type of protein found on the outside of red blood cells. People are either Rh-positive (they have the protein) or Rh-negative (they don't have the protein). This is important when you're Rh-negative and pregnant with a fetus who's Rh-positive.
Most people are Rh positive, meaning they have inherited the Rh factor from either their mother or father. If a fetus does not inherit the Rh factor from either the mother or father, then the fetus is Rh negative. When a woman is Rh negative and her fetus is Rh positive, it is called Rh incompatibility.
If you only have one R wire (That includes R, Rc, and Rh), you'll insert it into the Rc terminal on your ecobee. With dual-transformer systems you'll have two R wires—one from the cooling transformer (Rc) and one from the heating transformer (Rh).
The cooling wire connects the thermostat to a compressor. Black (Or Blue) Wire is the so-called C wire or common wire. It is a 24V common wire that is linked to the transformer.
The placement of the R wire, also known as the power or 24-volt wire, depends on the specific HVAC system and thermostat setup. In most cases, the R wire is connected to either the RC (cooling) terminal or the RH (heating) terminal on the thermostat.
This is the most typical thermostat wiring style, and it applies to systems that regulate both heat and air conditioning. The wires are typically arranged as follows: red for 24-volt hot, white for heat, yellow for cooling, green for the fan, and blue for common (although the common wire may be a different color).
Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) can automatically adjust your humidification setpoint based on the outdoor weather.
It can also cause fire if the reverse polarity goes undetected and damages wires or components that lead to sparks, which in turn causes a fire. And the worst is still yet to come, if you keep your outlet reversed you are increasing the potentials of electrical shocks.
Step 4: Now we're making progress rewiring the plug – next you need to put each wire into the appropriate terminal pin, and tighten with the screw to secure the copper in place. Start with the live (brown), then the neutral (blue), and finally the green and yellow (earth).
A receptacle's top two slots, or “eyes,” are meant for the vertically aligned plug prongs, while the rounded bottom slot is intended for the ground prong. At a casual glance, these two slots look the same but look closer, and you'll quickly see one slot is smaller than the other. This is the hot side.
Note: If you have an R, Rc or Rh wire, you can put it into the R connector on the Nest Thermostat. If you have a W2, Y2 or O/B wire, you can put it into the *O/B connector, if needed.
iDevices Thermostat requires a 24V common or 'C' wire, which provides continuous power for features like Wi-Fi connectivity and the backlit display.
O/B: This option selects the type of reversing valve for heat pump systems. An “O” reversing valve is energized when cooling and a “B” reversing valve is energized when heating. Most systems use an O type reversing valve.
