Electrical Requirements

It is your responsibility to have all electrical connections made by a properly licensed and competent electrician to ensure that the electrical installation is adequate and conforms to local and state regulations or codes. In the absence of such codes, all electrical connections, material, and workmanship must conform to the applicable requirements of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-LATEST EDITION or in Canada, the Canadian Installation 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.

Each dryer should be connected to an independently protected branch circuit. The dryer must be connected with copper wire only. Do not use aluminum wire, which would cause a fire hazard. The copper conductor wire/cable must be of proper ampacity and insulation in accordance with electric codes for making all service connections.

NOTE: The use of aluminum wire will void the warranty.

Wiring diagrams are affixed to the inside at the top front control door and to the rear upper back guard/panel.
