Connecting the Conduit to the House Electrical Junction Box

warning

•Do not ground the appliance to a gas supply pipe or hot water pipe.

•Do not turn on power to the appliance without it being permanently grounded.

•A grounded cold water pipe must have metal continuity to electrical ground and must not be interrupted by insulating materials. Any insulating materials must be jumpered with a length of No. 4 copper wire securely clamped to bare metal at both ends.

NOTE: The power supply must be properly polarized. Reverse polarity will result in continuous sparking of the electrodes, even after flame ignition. If there is any doubt as to whether the power supply is properly polarized or grounded, have it checked by a licensed electrician.

1.With the range positioned directly in front of the cabinet cutout, feed the appliance wires into the junction box. Depending upon local codes, utilize one of the three (3) methods shown to connect the appliance to the junction box.

2.Connect the white wire from the appliance to the neutral (white) supply wire in the junction box.

3.Connect the black wire from the appliance to the black (L1) power supply wire in the junction box.

4.Connect the red wire from the appliance to the red (L2) power supply wire in the junction box.

5.If using a 4-wire connection, connect the green wire to a grounded supply wire in the junction box or to a grounded cold water pipe. If connecting to a grounded cold water pipe:

◊Use a separate copper grounding wire (No. 10 minimum) to connect to the cold water pipe by means of a clamp and an external grounding connector screw.

◊If there are any materials that isolate the cold water pipe from ground, jumper it with a No. 4 copper wire, clamped on both ends.

6.Replace the junction box cover.
