F.ELECTRICAL INFORMATION

1.Electrical Requirements

It is your responsibility to have ALL electrical connections made by a properly licensed and competent electrician to assure that the electrical installation is adequate and conforms with local and state regulations or codes. In the absence of such codes, ALL electrical connections, materials, and workmanship must conform to the applicable requirements of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-LATEST EDITION, or in Canada, the Canadian Electrical Codes Parts 1 & 2 CSA C22.1-1990 or LATEST EDITION.

IMPORTANT: Failure to comply with these codes or ordinances, and/or the requirements stipulated in this manual, can result in personal injury or component failure.

NOTE: Component failure due to improper installation will VOID THE WARRANTY.

It is recommended that a separate circuit servicing each basket (tumbler) be provided. The dryer must be connected to copper wire ONLY. DO NOT use aluminum wire, which could cause a fire hazard.

NOTE: The use of aluminum wire will VOID THE WARRANTY.

2.Electrical Connections

A wiring diagram is included with each dryer showing the wiring connection sequence. The electrical connections are made in a box located at the top of the dryer. The dryer is shipped with three (3) connection points (L1, L2/Neutral, and Ground) for each basket (tumbler).

If local codes permit, power to the dryer can be made by use of a flexible U.L. listed power cord/pigtail (wire size must conform to rating of dryer), or the dryer can be hard wired directly to the service breaker panel. In both cases, a strain relief must be installed where the wiring enters the dryer.
