Electrical Requirements

(Electric Dryers)(120/240 Volt, 60 Hertz, 3-Wire Installation)(120/208 Volt, 60 Hertz, 3-Wire Installation)

NOTE: The wiring diagram is located behind the control panel, inside the control cabinet.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or personal injury, all wiring and grounding MUST conform with the latest edition of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1, and such local regulations as might apply. It is the customer’s responsibility to have the wiring and fuses checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the laundry room has adequate electrical power to operate the dryer.

Grounding and Wiring Instructions

●Each dryer must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system; or an equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on each dryer.

●Each dryer has its own terminal block that must be connected to a separate branch, 60 Hertz, single phase circuit, AC (alternating current) circuit, fused at 30 Amperes (the circuit must be fused on both sides of the line). ELECTRICAL

SERVICE FOR THE DRYER UNIT SHOULD BE OF MAXIMUM RATED VOLTAGE LISTED ON THE NAMEPLATE. DO NOT CONNECT DRYER TO 110, 115, OR 120 VOLT CIRCUIT. Heating elements are available for field installation in dryer units which are to be connected to electrical service of different voltage than that listed on nameplate, such as 208 Volt.

●If branch circuit to dryer unit is 15 feet (4.5 m) or less in length, use U.L. (Underwriters Laboratories) listed No. 10 A.W.G. wire (copper wire only), or as required by local codes. If over 15 feet (4.5 m), use U.L. listed No. 8 A.W.G. wire (copper wire only), or as required by local codes. Allow sufficient slack in wiring so dryer can be moved from its normal location when necessary.

●The power cord (pigtail) connection between wall receptacle and dryer unit terminal block is NOT supplied with dryer unit. Type of pigtail and gauge of wire must conform to local codes and with instructions mentioned on the following pages.

The method of wiring the dryer unit is optional and subject to local code requirements. Refer to Figure 13.
