Verify that wiring to house is adequate
Contact your local utility company to verify that the present electric service to your home is adequate. In some instances, the size of the wiring to the house and service switch must be increased to handle the electrical load demanded by the range.
Most wiring codes require a separate circuit with separate disconnect switch and fuses either in the main entrance panel or in a separate switch and fuse box.
The range requires a minimum of a three wire 120/240 or 120/208 volt, 30 AMP, 60 Hz AC circuit. Check local codes for proper amperage ratings. A four wire connection is preferred.
Most local building regulations and codes require that electrical wiring be done by licensed electricians. Be sure to install your range according to the electric codes in place in your region.
