EG21 and EGS21 Series Electric Gage and Swichgage® Installation
for Pressure, Temperature, Fuel Level, Voltmeter and Ammeter
IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR ALL EG21 ELECTRIC GAGES AND EGS21 ELECTRIC
SWICHGAGES FOR 24VDC AND 32VDC APPLICATIONS
A change in the dial illumination circuit has made it necessary to change the external wiring harness.
If you use the incorrect wiring harness, irreparable damage will occur to the gage mechanism.
The table below lists correct wire harness assemblies for units by manufacturing date. For date code
R1 (January 1996) or earlier (Q12, Q11, etc.) the wire harness can be identified by P/N and by
BLACK shrink tubing on the YELLOW wire. For date code R1 (February 1996) and later (R3, R4,
etc.) the wire harness can be identified by P/N and by RED shrink tubing on the YELLOW wire.

If dial illumination is NOT required, either wire harness can be used on any date code, if the YELLOW
wire is NOT connected.
Wire/Connector Assembly
NOTE: EG21 Series gage and EGS21 Series Swichgage movement and illumination
require 12VDC to function. For 24 or 32 volt systems, voltage converters are built into the
electrical wire/connector assembly and supplied with instrument.
Listed below are replacement part numbers for all wire/connector assemblies. Voltage converter included for 24
and 32 volt. Specify part number when ordering.

Basic Wiring
WARNING: Disconnect battery negative cable before wiring or
service.
*Yellow wire is optional for gage illumination
and does not need to be connected for gage
to operate.
Sender Wiring
Swichgage Wiring
WARNING: DISCONNECT BATTERY NEGATIVE CABLE BEFORE
WIRING OR SERVICE.
CAUTION: Connecting full Battery potential to the brown wire can
damage the Swichgage. Shutdown circuit is rated for 300 mA
continuous, 900 mA inrush. Circuit rounds out at set point.
Warranty - A limited warranty on materials and workmanship is given with this FW Murphy product. A copy of the warranty

CAUTION: Devices containing solid state components can be
damaged or caused to malfunction when used in systems which
incorporate inductive loads (e.g. relays, solenoids, etc.) that can
generate voltage spikes.
To reduce the potential for this type of damage, install a flyback or
clamping diode across all inductive loads (see wiring diagram
below).
Use Murphy diode package 65-00-0343 or equivalent. A typical
diode is 1N4005 which is readily available from commercial
sources. Failures of this type are not covered by our Limited
Warranty.
