Whirlpool 3397627C Electrical Connection, Direct Wire, Recommended Ground Method

Direct Wire

It is recommended that installation should be done by a qualified electrician.

This dryer can be connected directly to the fused disconnect or circuit breaker box with two-wire or three-wire flexible, armored or non-metallic sheathed copper cable (with ground wire). Do Not use two-wire with bare ground wire. All current-carrying wires must be insulated.

A conduit connector must be installed at each end of the power supply cable (at the dryer and at the junction box.) USE ONLY

10-GAUGE SOLID COPPER WIRE. DO NOT USE ALUMINUM WIRE. Allow 4 ft (1.22 m) of slack in the line so the dryer can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.
