Electrical Connections

For added personal safety, when possible, it is suggested that a separate ground wire (no. 18 minimum) be connected from the ground connection of the dryer to a grounded cold water pipe. DO NOT ground to a gas pipe or hot water pipe. The grounded cold water pipe must have metal-to-metal connection ALL the way to the electrical ground. If there are any nonmetallic interruptions, such as, a meter, pump, plastic, rubber, or other insulating connectors, they must be jumped out with no. 4 copper wire and securely clamped to bare metal at both ends.

IMPORTANT:

!For personal safety and proper operation, the dryer must be grounded.

Provisions are made for ground connection in each dryer at the electrical service connection area.

A wiring diagram is located inside the control box for connection data.

If local codes permit, power to the dryer can be made by the 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.

Gas and Steam Models Only

IMPORTANT:

!A separate protected circuit must be provided to each dryer.

Single-Phase (1ø) Wiring Connections/Hookup

The electrical input connections on ALL single-phase (1ø) gas dryers and steam dryers are made into the rear service box located at the upper left area of the dryer.
