Electrical Requirements - U.S.A.

IMPORTANT: The information below does not apply to units equipped for use in Canada.

It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that the electrical connection of this appliance is performed by a licensed electrician. The electrical installation, including minimum supply wire size and grounding, must be in accordance with the National Electric code ANSI/NFPA 70-1993* (or latest revision) and local codes and ordinances. The standard is available from:

National Fire Protection Association 1 Batterymarch Park

Quincy, Massachusetts 02269-9101

The correct voltage, frequency and amperage must be supplied to the appliance from a separate, grounded, circuit that is protected by a properly sized circuit breaker or time delay fuse. Refer to the data on the range rating label.

The ratings above are for reference only. Refer to the range data label for exact specifications (see page 3 for location).

Consult local building codes for the type and minimum wire gauge to use for the power requirements on the rating label.

Suggested wiring color code: Black, white, red and green.

The wiring needs to be long enough to allow the range to be pulled out from the wall for service while remaining connected. See page 10 for further details.

The wiring to the range must:

Have a minimum rating of 250 Volts @ 30 Amps for model ER36D, 250 Volts @ 50 amps for model ER48D.

Include a strain relief

Be terminated by tinned leads, closed loop terminals or open ended spade lugs with upturned ends

Where local code permits, a three (3) or four (4) wire appliance cord may be used. The appliance cord must:

Be UL listed type SRD or SRDT

NEMA 14-50P Plug NEMA 10-50P Plug

Be equipped with a NEMA 14-50P 4 wire plug or, where local code permits, a NEMA 10-50P 3 wire plug.

Prior to range installation, have a licensed electrician install a conduit junction box or electrical receptacle according to the type of wiring used.

Electrical Requirements - Canada

It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that the required 4 wire electrical outlet is installed by a licensed electrician as specified below prior to range installation. The electrical outlet installation, including minimum supply wire size and grounding, must be in accordance with all governing codes and ordinances.

The correct voltage, frequency and amperage must be supplied to the appliance from a separate, grounded, circuit that is protected by a properly sized circuit breaker or time delay fuse. Refer to the data on the range rating label.

Ranges equipped for use in Canada come pre-wired with a

4 Wire appliance cord and NEMA 14-50P plug.

Do not modify the factory wiring. The plug is designed to insert directly into a NEMA 14-50R electrical receptacle installed by

a licensed electrician according NEMA 14-50R Receptacle to the above specifications.

Gas Supply Requirements

Check your local building codes for the proper method of installation. In the absence of local codes, this appliance should be installed in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1.

Be certain that the appliance being installed is correct for the gas service provided (natural gas or LP gas). Also, if operating the range at an altitude above 4000 feet. (1219 m) make sure it is equipped for high altitude operation. Refer to the range data plate and the table on page 3 to determine the correct model.

See the table below for gas supply pressure requirements.

The regulator inlet accommodates a 3/4” gas line. The range ships with a 1/2” to 3/4” adapter connected to the regulator.
