See Fig. 13 on page 10. 24 Vac power is pre-wired
between the transformer secondary at the top left of the
AQ25A's transformer and the AQ15740B Zoning
Module. No field wiring is required.

NOTE: When wiring zone valves with end switches, note the
transformer's VA:
If low voltage zone valves with end switches are used
for zone control, make sure the selected zone valves
do not draw more power (VA) than the 38 VA capacity
of the AQ10X38 transformer supplied with the AQ25A
Control Panel. This integral transformer has enough
power to operate 4 motorized zone valves (such as
Honeywell V8043E valves or 4 valves using low-
amperage draw, heat motor actuators such as
Honeywell MV100 actuators), plus power the
electronics of the AQ25A's Control Module and up to
16 AQ1000 thermostats.
If zone valves with high-amperage draw, heat motor
actuators are used, such as Taco 500 series zone
valves, additional 24 Vac transformer capacity will
need to be wired to the Zoning Module to power the
valves. See Fig. 14 on page 11 for recommended
wiring of additional low voltage VA capacity to
AQ2000 Series Zoning Modules.
CAUTION
Equipment Damage Hazard.
Can damage internal circuitry of Zoning Module.
The ES1 and ES2 terminals of the AQ15740B Zoning
Module are powered terminals and must only be
connected to a set of dry contacts, such as a zone
valve motor's end switch. If power is applied to these
contacts (for example, by running line voltage through
the zone valves' end switches to bring on a circulator
feeding those valves), the internal circuitry of the
Zoning Module will be damaged, in which case the
warranty for this product will be voided.
