ELECTRIC COOKTOP INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance is manufactured with a frame connected green (or bare copper) ground wire.

DO NOT ground to a gas supply pipe. DO NOT connect to electrical power supply until appliance is permanently grounded. Connect the ground wire before turning on the power.

If your appliance is not equipped with a white neutral conductor:

Connect only to a 3-wire, 120/240V power supply; the neutral conductor is not required for the operation of the appliance. The potential at the power supply electrical connections shall be 150V to ground or less.

NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN: The armored cable leads supplied with the appliance are UL-recognized for connection to larger gauge household wiring. The insulation of the leads is rated at temperatures much higher than temperature rating of household wiring. The current carrying capacity of the conductor is governed by

Where local codes permit connecting the appliance-grounding conductor to the neutral (white) wire (USA only):

Your appliance has a 3-wire cable to be connected to a 3-wire grounded junction box (see figure 4):

1.Disconnect the power supply.

2.In the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box:

Connect appliance and power supply cable wires as shown in figure 4.

rather than the wire gauge alone.

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK: Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for new branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC); mobile homes; recreational vehicules; or in Canada, or in an area where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral connector.

(If your appliance is equipped with a white neutral conductor.)

This appliance is manufactured with a white neutral power supply and a frame connected copper wire. The frame is grounded by connection of grounding lead to neutral lead at the termination of the conduit, if used in USA, in a new branch circuit installation (1996 NEC), mobile home, recreational vehicles, where local code do not permit grounding trough the neutral (white) wire or in Canada, disconnect the white and green lead from each other and use ground lead to ground unit in accordance with local codes, connect neutral lead to branch circuit-neutral conductor in usual manner see Figure 6 or 7. If your appliance is to

be connected to a 3 wire grounded junction box (US only), where local code permit connecting the appliance-grounding conductor to the neutral (white) see Figure 4 or 5.
